Hi,

If I received sms that contain some text with phone number, is there any app could paste that number to the phone dialer?

It's built in. You can highlight and copy the number in the SMS, then use the paste function in the dialer.

I had also noticed that sometimes numbers were underlined as a link and could be tapped, but sometimes not. Now in WM 2005, phone numbers are always tappable.

Thank you Carlos for your reply but I meant that if it could be like nokia phones there is an option that search for the phone number in text message.

Ah, I've never seen that.

Try sending a fully-formatted phone number to yourself and see if it shows it as a tappable link. +1-area-prefix-number
