Is there a way to program a speed dial number or button that will do something like the following?

770 + Extension + # + Password + #

Thanks

 
System is Merlin Magix and Voicemail is Merlin Messaging.
 
You may be able to do it with two buttons. Use *21 as the autodial feature, instead of *22. The # sign will terminate the autodial string.

Well, wait a minute, you are forgetting one shortcut already built in.

I tell my Voice Mail students, "If you sitting at your extension and call voice mail, when she says 'Please enter Extension & Pound Sign' all you need to do is hit the Pound sign.

 
Yeah, but bottom line is you can't embed the mailbox number and/or the pound, and the password and pound onto a speed dial button.

On some Partner systems, I have looped an intercom station to a CO port, and assigned that CO line to a phone. Then you go off hook on that button and press the speed dial button to get one touch access to voice mail.

On a Legend, you should be able to do the looping, put the CO line in a pool, and program the pool, access number, pauses, and password on a button?
 
Yes, You can do a "LOOP AROUND" on a Legend.

But it seems to be a waste of facilities.

It will work, and if that makes them happy, then why not!
