We don't know where the OP is located. Some phone systems produce non-standard dialtones that are not recognized by some modems. BTW you do not have to have dialtone to dial. You just need loop current and a switch listening at the other end. The dialtone is just a signal to the user that the switch is indeed listening. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, Wisconsin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
