There are lots of ways to do this; here's one. - program one of the extn buttons to dial a special extn number - program that special extn number to set a database variable - in the dialplan entry for the phone's real extn number, include a step to check the database variable. If set, send the call directly to VM otherwise proceed with ringing the phone. Note: the logic of the special extn number could be configured to toggle the database entry on/off depending on its currect status. Obviously, one can't control icons on the 7960, so the user won't have any visual indication as to whether its on/off. If you search the archives and wiki, you'll also find some routines that do call forwarding. Use those as a basis for the above, or, use that to forward calls to VM.
