Hello Steven. That's what I thought. But I don't know much about PBX/key phone systems, so I thought I would ask. O.K.- then. Is there any support in the program to be able to specify a make/model of phone system, and if that system has the codes available, translate the codes for that system. e.g. if I found/obtained half a dozen business (digital) phones of one manufacturer, one model, would they be usable ? (I suspect not, but anything is possible with time and effort). Or is the proprietry PBX and phone systems, so totally alien to each other, that is is impossible. -- A fool-proof method for sculpting an elephant: first, get a huge block of marble; then you chip away everything that doesn't look like an elephant. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
