							Smart dialing
About smart dialing With the smart-dialing feature, you can set a default country code and area code for phone numbers so that you do not have to dial a country
code and area code each time that you make a call, unless the country code or area code are different from the default codes that you set.
Some country codes are not supported by the smart-dialing feature.
In the smart-dialing options, you can also specify the main phone number for an organization that you call frequently so that you can quickly
call a contact in that organization by dialing only the extension for the contact. If you add contacts from that organization to your contact list,
when you add their phone numbers, you can type only the extensions instead of typing out the main phone number for the organization.

2. Press the  Menu key.
3. Click  Options.
4. Click  Smart Dialing .
5. Set the  Country Code  and Area Code  fields.

7. In the  National Number Length  field, set the default length for phone numbers in your country.
8. Press the  Menu key.
9. Click  Save.
Note:   When you calculate the default length for phone numbers, include your area code and local number, but do not include your country
code or the National Direct Dialing prefix.

							Multiple phone numbers
About multiple phone numbers When you have multiple phone numbers associated with your  BlackBerry® device, you can switch the phone number that you use as your active
phone number. You have multiple phone numbers associated with your device if one of the following situations applies:

If your SIM card supports more than one phone number, you can make calls using your active phone number only, but you receive calls to all
phone numbers. If you are already on a call, you receive calls to your active phone number only, and any calls that you receive to your other
phone numbers receive a busy signal or are sent to voice mail.
