    Phone number validation

    Hail,

    Would it be possible to create an application that dials into a predetermined list of phone numbers and can identify the following:
    If there's no answer
    If there's a busy signal
    If I reached an IVR
    If I reach dead air...
    The point would be to validate certain numbers' status and knowing one is in trouble, right now we have to wait for customer complaints...
    I know you can dial phone numbers from VB apps but can it return a code depending on what happens on the other end?
