We did that in our offices, but found that the data lines induced noise into the voice lines, so you would hear a funny ZZZiiippp noise each time the screen of a terminal was rewritten. We eventually changed phone systems anyway, and expanded our terminal wiring so much that we had to run separate cables, so it is no longer a problem. -- Gerry Wheeler Phone: (519)884-2251 Mortice Kern Systems Inc.
