call up
Dial someone's number
Call up means to summon or bring forth.
You call up a friend on the phone, call up memories from the past, or call up reserves for military duty.
In computing, to call up a file or program is to retrieve and display it: She called up the spreadsheet.
A call-up is the summons itself, especially for military service: He received his call-up notice.
