Is there a way to make MSComm respect the modem configuration in Windows? I've configured my modem in Windows to be completly silent while dialing out, but everytime I use the MSComm control, it insist on annoying my coworkers with the dial tone and the connect buzz.

I tried this:
THIS.ModemComm.Output = "ATM" + CHR(13)
THIS.ModemComm.Output = "ATDT" + ALLTRIM(THIS.PhoneNb) + CHR(13)

It did kill the speaker, but it doesn't want to dial anymore. If I comment out the first line, it goes to work again (silent). I haven't tried it yet, but I suspect that if I reboot my PC, the modem configuration will be lost and it will operate the speaker again until I comment out the first line.

Any suggestions?

BTW, I'm using a USRobotics Sporter 33K modem.

TIA
