It worked just fine for me. Do the following (example phone number used): MEX>phone my=*70,13135551212 Then you can say CALL MY and it will do it. Note the comma to allow a pause after the *70 to allow for time for the second dialtone to come up. Don't use dashes or you may exceed the buffer space available for the number. --Keith
