Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Mail / May 2008Inserting a "Wait" in the middle of a phone number
How do I insert a Wait code in a phone number? A pause (,) will not work since the wait time can vary greatly.  SignatureJames Commas are the only way I know to add a pause. What are you attempting?

Thank you, I dial in to a message que. When the initial call connects, I must dial an extension. Occaisionally the switchboard operator picks up and actually answers. With the comma, the extenstion number fires when the pause is over and disrupts the call. With my cell phone I can insert a "wait" instead of a "pause". With the wait, the extension only dials when I click continue. With the pause it always dials the second part-even if I am already talking.

I will admit that with microsoft revamping all their online communities yesterday I am having trouble finding things. I would hope you might be aware of where YOU are posting since tou are the MVP and I am in need of your help.

I don't use the web-based version of "Communities", just using my newsreader to access this newsgroup, which only has "Vista Mail" in its name.

This I was just looking for a solution that I now suspect does not exist.
