Well I never did find out. What I did find out is that I could only set
CALLERID(name) in the context the received the call, not in the
subroutine. But if I set a dummy variable ( Set(cidname="Fred") ) in the
subroutine, I could set the callerid back in the originating context (
Set(CALLERID(name) = ${cidname} ).
Makes no sense, but there you are.
