Hi, As Daniel points out (yeah, yeah! :), I was trying to send ascii characters to a touchtone expecting voice processing system. The solution, as Daniel also pointed out, was to make a long phone number using the comma as a (default 2 second) delay. Also as mentioned, the duration of the commas can be adjusted using the S8 register. Incidentally, the duration of the generated touchtones can be adjusted using the S11 register, just in case of a noisy line or the other end is lame and the touchtones need to be longer in duration for accurate recognition. The only thing Daniel mentioned which I'm a little uncertain about is sending +++ to the modem, because my modem book says that "escapes to online-command mode." I have not used online-command mode with my modem interactively in real-time with Linux yet because I don't know how (I've done it in NT and dos using hyperterminal and smartcomm). Otherwise, Daniel is exactly right. Thanks again for the save. I should also point out that John was perfectly correct in telling me how to do what I originally asked. Thanks. I actually got that going, which is how I realized, shortly before I picked up Daniel's mail, that what I asked for was not what I wanted. Doh! All's well that ends .. David [EMAIL PROTECTED]
