Tarran,

You may want to look at Microsoft Speech API (SAPI). I'm fairly sure that it will dial a phone for you. There are some good samples out there for it as well.

If you want to retrieve the number that was already dialed on the phone, you have to talk to the telephone switch. These usually provide the data as a "report" that you will have to retrieve and parse to get the info. Depending on what software comes with the switch, you may be able to run a serial cable from the switch to a PC running telnet software. The telnet software can probably save the messages to a text file as it comes through.
