Storing the string of codes to by-pass voice mail prompt for security code?

Many months ago I spotted a thread on this forum with a way to store the security code for voice mail so that it paused after dialing VM, then it sent the security code so that I don't have to manually type the code in. Very useful when using handsfree in the car. I have no idea what to search for in the search box. Anyone know what I'm talkign about? Point me to the thread of givce me some term to search for, please???? When I reset my phone I lost the setup. My CRS gets bad and I can't remember the code every time I get a voice mail. LOL

Found it. It does not by-pass the security code. That was why I could nto locate it in the search dialog.

Pause Dialing for Voicemail and Calling Card Dialing
There are two types of pauses available on your phone.

Wait: Inserting a wait will send the next set of numbers when prompted (a pop up will appear on the phone asking if the next digits should be sent, click yes to send the digits).
Pause: Inserting a pause will automatically send the next set of numbers after three seconds. To work with some phone systems, 2-3 pauses may be required.
