That sounds like the API call needed here.
Well ... it's not *that* straight forward. GoSub (or Macro) is being used as one side of an originated call. I'd have to add a new application to make it work. GoSubInternal (for internal use only) or something. Any preference between just using Macro vs adding a new GoSubInternal app? I know Macro is considered deprecated but it does work fine here. Besides, Macro has been around *so* long (10+ years?), removing it would just be evil. - Russell ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
