incoming fax detection

Hello,

I use a fax modem with W2000 professional.

I don't how to detect incoming fax using the mscomm control .
The stream I receive is like the incoming phone : "RING"

Is anybody have an idea how to get the difference between fax and phone using VB6.

Bests regards

Charles

You gotta check your modem AT command manual for the answer. I suppose you will have to send a command like "AT+CLCC" to the modem when you detect "RING"

rekcus: :rolleyes: AT+CLCC seem belong to GSM AT+C command set and not normal modem AT command set.

Tapiero: Perhaps, you should check out the TAPI (Telephony Aplication Programming Interface)
