Hi, how can you add the "+" or "00" prefix to international numbers in NowSMS 2006.

I have multiple websites/applications sending messages to the NowSMS GW. When nowSMS routes this messages to the SMPP i want to add prefix "+" or "00" infront of the numbers that have this missing. We support many countries so have that in mind. An example below

Sender: 39xxxxx
Receiver: 44xxxx(Works UK handles the missing "+" or "00" fine, but when receiver replies the sender would never get the message because of the missing "+" or "00" infront of the sender number)
or
Sender:+44xxxxx
Receiver:39xxxx(Receiver would never get the message)

How would i add the "+" to the sender and the receiver if it is missing. Why i ask is that in Italy 3 is a local prefix number. So if the "+" or "00" is missing the message is never received.

Thanks for your answer Yung Tian, but this is not what i was looking for. Because there is so many applications and websites that i dont have access to needs to have this changed. I was thinking more like if it was possible in NowSMS configuration. Either in the .ini files or some other way in the application itself.
