Anyway, I find it easier to just type the number out...

I do this:

1. Start the Msging app(ofcourse )
2. Open contacts.
3. Find and open the desired contact
4. Minimize and type it out in the message... you can peak at the number when you need to... I find this much quicker for some reason... and safer than going into edit mode.
Thanks for reminding we are on Swipe
I even had done this before, but then forgot in a rush

Still simple text-insert of a number from contants would be much better. I can't figure out why modern phones haven't such a feature.

True, pity that it has been discontinued though. Nokia really made a bad decision here.

  3. Copy the Name "Lisa"
  4. replace Lisa by Bart
  5. Type what you want, and when you paste, Lisas Number is pasted
