It's still there, it just requires another key press.
    ALT-D followed by D will get you to the same place as ALT-R
did with procomm 2.4.2.  It is a little more inconvienent if you
already know which entry number you want to dial.  With procomm 2.4.2
I found myself going to the dialing directory, looking up the entry
number (or numbers) and then exiting and using alt-R.  Of course, if
you are only dialing one number it is not necessary to use D in the 
dialing directory, just move the cursor to the entry and press enter.
