Commonly known a "call popping"

It depends very much on the type of telephone system you have is it a
standard bt line or through P.A.B.X or proprietry exchange system?
Im sure it can be done through the TAPI interface but I have no
experience of this.
The only experience I have with call popping is through a Toshiba
Stratalink dk280 system with comms enabled handsets. In this system
the computers are connected directly to the phones and a program that
listens to the phone thro the comm port is run. The program is
configured to react to certain telephony events. It passed the CLI on
a "ringing" event and then fires off a lookup. This way, the computer
would have details onscreen before the phone was even answered.
There are other "Server" based systems that achieve the same thing but
another way.
You will have to be more specific I think before anyone here can make
really usefull suggestions.
