This equation takes a phone number with area code and strips the 7 numbers after the area code, leaving only the area code:
=LEFT(TEXT(E1,"0"),LEN(TEXT(E1,"0"))-7)
You can change the variables to clip and prune whatever info off either side of a number to get what you need.

Turns out that .camrec files created by Camtasia are actually zip files that contain the .avi that was recorded. You can use a program like 7-Zip to extract the .avi file
And if you want to save some space, you can always compress that .avi file with WinRar. It looks like the .camrec zip file is not compressed - however I've been able to take a 5GB+ avi file from Camtasia and compress it down to under 400MB.
From my archive notes: 10/25/2012
While trying to integrate an Avaya IP Office into Exchange 2007 I found that there was no "Unified Messaging Server Role" service installed. So I went to the control panel to change the install for Exchange Server 2007 to enable that Role. Two address paths were defined when adding this service.
First for the Exchange Server installation files:
C:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Bin\CMPNENTS\EXCHSRV80
Second for the Exchange Server installation path:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server
Our server did not have any folder located in the default installation files path and I didn't have my Exchange server install CD handy. Looking at several guides online, users have complained that using the original files from their install CD caused issues. So I went online and found the latest service pack that I had installed and decided to extract the files from there. Turns out I had Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (x64) installed.
I was able to download the "Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 2" files from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4479
The exe file was about 884 MB. After extracting the file using WinRAR, the file size was about 1.22 GB (now I can see why the files were not on my server). At one point or another, a previous tech had cleared out these files to save space on the server. From my workstation where I extracted the files, I opened the shortcut to my server and copied the files to the C:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Bin\CMPNENTS\ under a new folder named "EXCHSRV80"
I decided on waiting a couple of days for the weekend as I didn't want to take the server down for updates in the middle of the workweek...

· Copy the CMPNENTS\Exchange12 directory from DVD2 to C:\Exchange 12
· Add a registry key :
MediaPackage REG_SZ \CMPNENTS\Exchange12\

Found this guide to stop the EAccessviolation error associated with Windows 2003 server when running Avaya's CallStatus program. A user named cascadia on the http://www.pbxtech.info Forum had this to say and it worked for me:
====================
There is a very easy fix to this. I was advised to update the server fully with MS patches. Did that, but no help. So I did the following on a hunch and it worked!
My Computer > Properties
Advanced Tab
Performance > Settings
Data Execution Prevention Tab
This is turned on by default with a blank exception list.
Click Add...
Locate your copy of callstatus.exe
Mine was in C:\Program Files\Avaya\IP Office\CallStatus\callstatus.exe
Click Apply > OK > OK
And now you should be able to execute the Call Status monitor and run it like you used to.

EXCHANGE SERVER 2007 SP3 DOES NOT UPDATE THE EXCHANGE SERVER ACTIVE DIRECTORY SCHEMA:
This issue occurs because the Active Directory schema version information in Exchange Server 2007 SP3 is the same as in Exchange Server 2007 SP2.
To avoid this issue, run the Setup.com /prepareschema command before you install Exchange Server 2007 SP3.
