>>>I'm looking to integrate phone system status with my VFP apps. I believe TAPI is the go. Can anyone point me to the documentation and source info for TAPI.
>>>TIA

>>TAPI is difficult, but not impossible, under VFP. TAPI is threaded, i.e. you make a call to TAPI with a processing return address. When the TAPI function has completed, it calls the return address with completion information.

>>If you are still interested in trying this, I will give you a book title, that is very helpful. I don't have it here at home, but can get it from work soon.

>Thanks Glen,
>Yes, I'm still interested. I'm being asked to expand an existing call management system running in VFP with "TAPI". I'm going to be provided with the TAPI but documentation - who knows. Wait and see.
>Sounds like it's not a two day job :-)
>Would appreciate any leads.
>Isn't TAPI a Microsoft product? I can't find any reference on their and a search on the Internet didn't reveal many hits. I did find a lot of South American "Tapirs" though - ROFL
