Greg:

Take a look at CommTools at http://www.magnacartasoftware.com/. I've been using CommTools for the last ten or so years without much problem. I initiate the call but you should be able to setup an application that accepts incoming calls.

Good luck,

Scott

>I'm looking for suggestions regarding implementing automated dial-up from within my VFP application. I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for VFP or Windows APIs that I might use in my application to automate the dial/connect/download processes for my users without the need to write an external batch script, or have them use hyper terminal, etc. This particular process is a very basic dial-up BBS type connection and the users will simply need to connect, login, & download selected files.
