NOTES:
You may need to change how a caller ID number is dialed if the entry does not
appear in the correct format. Caller ID numbers may appear with an area code that is
not necessary for local calls, or without a 1 that is necessary for long distance calls
(see View dialing options on page 60).
If the caller’s name you received from the telephone service provider is all in
capital letters, the first letter of every word remains a capital letter, while other
letters become lower case. However, the next letter after the prefix “Mac”, “Mc”, “D’”,
“C’” or “O’”, is kept as a capital letter. For example, the “D” in “MacDonald” is kept as
a capital letter. Another exception is that “VAN DER” will be changed to “Van der”.
If the telephone number from the caller ID information has already been saved in the
directory under a different name, the new name will overwrite the old one.
