Hi!

I want to access (dial numbers) my phone LUCENT (8411D)in my office on
my desk from my access frontend.
Anybody knows to access LUCENT phones with VBA?!

Thx!

Well, if you have a modem in your computer, you can use the code in
this Microsoft KB article to dial the phone for you:

I've used it a long time ago in an application or two, in A97, and I
definitely know that the code converted successfully to A2K and ran
in A2K, so I think it would continue to work.

This means you can also program in Access to log your calls, like in
Outlook.
