I am looking for several fragments of IBM PC BASIC code that will
activate a Hayes or Hayes compatible modem. I have a Hayes modem and I
would like to be able to control it under a BASIC program. I would like:

1) To use it as a Dialer.

2) To be able to detect a carrier or busy signal.

3) To hang up the phone.

4) To be able to read and write to the modem control registers.

I believe this is done by sending commands to COM1 or opening COM1 up as
a file or something. I know there are several program written in BASIC,
in the public domain, that implement the above functions.

If you can help me out in any way I would appreciate this. Thanks in
advance.
