I didn't see that anyone has an answer to my question/problem. I did find out that I can prepend but just not like on my other phones. If you know the phone number and deselect smartdialing it will work by manually entering in the numbers i.e. *67 123-456-7890.
I was just looking for a way to do it if I did not have the phone number memorized. Which is the case in about 99% of the numbers in my phone book. Amazing about 5 years ago I knew everyones phone number and now with cell phones and phone books I never remember anyones.
If someone has any type of workaround for me I would be eternally greatfull. I would think there would be some type of hack or program out there to make the phone do this. Please let me know.......
