Hi!

1. You are absolutely right, and I humbly apologize - I'll be more careful where I send my requests in the future.

2 & 3. Thanks - that sure points me in the right direction - just after I sent the message this morning, I thought about "digging" in the preferences of the ABook directly, but I was still looking for a way to do that...

I'll leave the thread alone now, and take it to cocoa-dev instead if I need more help...

Thanks!

1. This isn't an Xcode question. Better to ask on cocoa-dev or OmniGroup's macosx-dev.

2. index = [(NSNumber *)CFPreferencesCopyAppValue (@"ABPhoneFormat-Enabled", @"com.apple.AddressBook") intValue];
array = (NSArray *) CFPreferencesCopyAppValue (@"ABPhoneFormat-PhoneFormatter", @"com.apple.AddressBook");
The index'th item in array will then be the user's chosen format. However, I get +1 (###) ###-#### for the result, when the actual format used omits the +1; I don't know whether the format is unused, or is modified inside Address Book to suppress the local country code.


3. The above being CF...Copy functions, I really should have done a CFRelease of the returned values when I was done with them.

All right, I give up, and excuse me if this is blatantly easy... The Address Book has preferences for formatting phone and fax numbers... Do we have access to the selected formatter as programmers? I'd like to format the phone numbers exactly like in the Address Book, respecting the user's choice of formatter...
