    I figured out how to communicate with your modem and now
    I'm able to detect for rings, and pick up and hang up the hook with my program.

    The only thing I can't find an answer on is how I can play a wave file over the modem.

    I would like my program to be able to detect rings, check the Caller ID and then based on the Caller ID it should play different wave files/greeting messages for the person on the other side of the phone.

    Does anyone know how to do this? Playing the greetings?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Dan,

    I have also been trying to do that. I hear that TAPI is used. Are you familiar with that?

    No, I'm not (yet?) familiar with TAPI...
    As I understand, you should use
    waveOutnGetDevCaps and waveOutOpen calls to send
    the wave file to your modems wave device.

    I am still trying to figure out how though.
