As i stated before, MPE is a phenomenal program. The possibility to use this forum for discussing new features is a big plus.
Now to my problem. Our mobile phones are connected to a Centrex solution, which means that I have two numbers to my phone. The normal 070 (mobile in sweden) and one 031 (local area code for Göteborg). When people call me on the 070 number everything is Ok but when the call comes in via the 031 number there are two additional zeros added in the beginning of the number. This makes the phone number lookup malfunction. Is it possible to make MPE skip the first two zeros if there are three or more in the number?

Thanks in advance

I think the place is right for it.

Please reproduce your problem and the post the logfile here (you can xxx the last 3 digits of telephone-numbers for privacy)

Someone called me from a normal phone via my 031 number. His number was presented as 00031142XXX instead of 031142XXX. When I right click on the number in MPE an choose look for the number on I-net I get

I have to find out where the error is created. A removal of triple-zeros would be possible but its not a fix, it would be a workaround. If possible i would need the logfile when the other person calls you again, so i can see how the call comes throught the interface.

Hmm.... I haven't described my problem correct. Sorry.

The thing is that I always get two additional zeros in front of the number when the call comes via the Centrex. A call from Germany will be 000049555xxx instead of 0049555xxx. National calls will be 00031555xxx instead of 031555xxx. So what I would like MPE to do is to check how many zeros the number starts with before it tries to look up the Person. If there are one or two zeros in the beginning the number is correct and MPE can check the number. If there are three zeros it is a national number and the two first zeros should be removed. And last, if there are four zeros it is an International number and the first two zeros should be removed. So this is not an error in the MPE it just my Operator that sends to many zeros to the caller ID.

Aha - now i understand.
Is the problem only related in the reverse-lookup or also in other things ?
Is it possible to dial numbers like this from your phone: 000049555... ?

Exactly. A few years ago one had to dial double zero from the mobile to get a line outside. This is no longer the case, but I can add two zeros in the beginning or skip them. It doesn't matter. So as you said this is just a problem with reverse lookup.
