If there are 3 different CallerIDs then you would have three differently named dialplan variables containing the appropriate CallerID information for each. The logic would have to know which dialplan variable to use depending on the situation, but it would already have to know that regardless. The only difference is having the CallerID stored with the device configuration versus in dialplan logic itself. As for realtime I have not utilized setvar with it but it may be possible to separate each variable and value using &, just a theory though. -- Joshua Colp Digium, Inc. | Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: www.digium.com & www.asterisk.org -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
