I have a hayes compatable modem connected to the same phone line as my
telephone.  I also have the call waiting feature.  When I am on line and
an incoming call comes in, it clobbers my session.  Somewhere, and it
escapes me where, I found and used a command that was inserted, I believe,
somewhere in the ATDT command that would block any incoming call and give
the caller a busy signal just as if I did not have call waiting.  This 
worked great but for some reason that to this day escapes me I removed it
from my attention/dial command.  I would be forever grateful if someone
could tell me what I need to do to block these incoming calls.  Many thanks
in advance.

Mike
