Setting My Analog Modem to Auto Dial Numbers

How can i set my analog modem in windows 98/xp to dial 9 and wait a second before dialing a number, and then when the number is dialed wait a second and then do "FLASH" and "41".

i want this done automatically when i dial a number in the phone dialing program inside windows without entering all the codes to do that every time.

Would you like to answer or comment?

The full AT command would be:

ATDT 9W[Number],!41

Here is a set of modem commands you might find interesting:

AT - Tells the modem that modem commands follow. This must begin each line of commands.
Z - Resets the modem to its default state.
, (a comma) - Makes the software pause for a second. More than one can be used in a row. For example, ",,,," tells the software to pause four seconds. (The duration of the pause is governed by the setting of register S8.)
^M - Sends the terminating Carriage Return character to the modem. This is a control code that most communication software translates as a carriage return. (Note, when this is sent to the modem, it is sent as a single byte, ASCII CR (0x0D), or "Control-M" not the two characters ^ and M.)
; (a semi-colon) - Return to command mode immediately after dialing. This makes it possible to dial more than 45 digits numbers or to walk through interactive menus for example.
W - wait for dialtone. The modem will wait for a dialtone before dialing numbers following the W. There is a timeout that must not be exceeded for this to work, generally configured in the S7 register.
! - flash hook. put quickly the modem on/off hook.

Zappatta got it right the first time.

what i need to know now is where do i need to insert this command so it will auto dial this whenever i enter a number in the windows default phone-dialer?

meaning if i enter a number "8459522" in the application it will automatically do ATDT 9W8459522,!41 in the background.

thanks.

Assuming you are on windows XP:

Start -> Settings - Control Panel -> Phone and Modem Options

Choose location (default should be enough i think)

click Edit button

in the "To access and outside line for local calls" textbox put the string: 9W8459522,!41

I've never tried it before. but i THINK it should work :)

in fact, maybe put it in both textboxes.

good luck:)

ok, i found the answer myself, just to help other who might have this problem here is the solution:

just add a New "Calling Card" to the phone dialer, in the new calling card options you can set a script to dial some code before and after the requested number, its pretty easy to set up.

hope it help.
