You don't actually need the phone dialer. What is required is a script that
will sequence a series of tones, depending on the number required. This
sequence of tones, played out by the speaker system can be picked up by the
phone reciever if held in the handand will then, on receiving the tones,
dial the number. Requires a good scripter though. But I believe its very
workable.

How Do I Get Phone Dialer To Work In Windows XP
By default Phone Dialer is not added to the communication
menu. Therefore unless you know where to find it your
immediate assumption is that Windows XP no longer uses Phone
Dialer. As you can see, from the instructions below, Phone
Dialer is alive and kicking. It's just keeping itself well
and truely under wraps!
To Run Phone Dialer
1/ Click the Start button
2/ From the Start menu click Run
3/ In the Run dialog box type: dialer.exe and press Enter
4/ The dialer application will now open
Adding Phone Dialer to the Communication Menu
1/ Click the Start button
2/ From the Start menu click All Programs followed by
Accessories
3/ From the Accessories drop down menu click on Windows
Explorer
4/ In Windows Explorer click on the drive/partition your
Windows XP is installed on. This is usually C:
5/ Navigate to Documents and Settings\All Users\Start
Menu\Programs\Accessories\Communications
6/ Click File on the main Windows Explorer toolbar
7/ From the drop down menu click New and then click Shortcut
8/ The shortcut wizard will now open
9/ In the shortcut dialog box type: c:\program
<file:///c:/program> files\windows nt\dialer.exe
10/ Click Next
11/ The 'type a name for this shortcut' dialog box now
appears
12/ Type: Phone Dialer
13/ Now click Finish
14/ Phone Dialer should now appear on the Communications
menu

Hi all.
I have a client who wants to use his ordinary phone but dial
out using the computer. This worked quite well with windows
98. He just went to the address book in Outlook Express,
pressed alt t to go to the tools menu and I for the actions
sub menu and d for dial.
He got a box confirming the number he wanted to dial and
pressed enter.
Once the number he called had been dialed he just picked up
the phone and carried on talking.
now he gets a dialog called phonecall that says the call
failed and you can only exit this with the mouse or using
jaws cursor to find the close button. I am using windows XP
service pack 2.
Can anyone give advice about what they would use for dialing
numbers with the PC?
Regards
Graham
