(Don's Party) I suppose it might also be helpful to mention that it would seem that the RS-232 signal RI (ring indicator) pin 22, is probably not directly readable (this is an assumption, as my hardware manual is not handy). But, if you are not using a Hayes compatible modem you can probably redirect pin 22 of the modem to the RTS or CTS pin and sense it that way. With a Hayes compatible, you simply look for a received string of 'RING', which is preferable as the RI pin will probably pulse momentarily which coulwd be missed if you happened to be busy doing something else. (and this is a multi-tasking OS remember).
