Nothing except to write a little VB code to change the phone numbers.
See
http://www.outlookcode.com to see if there is already some code you can
use or customize for your purposes.

After furious head scratching, John asked:
| Milly,
|
| This method you suggest will not work as the format of the details
| exported is "General" with a " ' " infront of the details exported.
| When you apply a custom format it is no longer general and when you
| import back into outlook the formatting is ignored and is displayed
| as a number.
| When displayed like this, outlook misses off the +44 (0) at the
| begining of the phone number and display it as 1234 567890 (dropping
| the 0) instead of +44 (0)1234 567890
|
| Any ideas?
|
| Regards
|
| John
