Rob-- You've left out some details, like where the callerid info you want to see is stored. Every channel keeps track of ani, rdnis, and dnid as well, and depending on the driver, usually only the ani or the plain callerid name/num end up in the CDR records. In the dialplan, you can attach other info onto a CDR by setting, for example, the CDR userfield, to one of these values, and hopefully, you can get this info out into a CDR so you can arrange your billing info accordingly... Also, keep in mind that the CDR is a separate data structure, and only gets updated at certain times, and you are only allowed to set certain fields via dialplan funcs. (and the CID info isn't on that list!). murf -- Steve Murphy Software Developer Digium
