Louie,

	Thank you for your reply.

	Do you use the voice features e.g. voice mail box, Fax on demand
, caller-ID, IVR, making voice call etc ? I am looking for some kind of 
drivers, library (e.g. tapi like) calls, C/Perl interface etc to the
voice features of the card. I have no problem using it as a modem or fax.
I am currently playing with vgetty which is good but not enough.

 
	Thanks.

	Francis
