Are you sure Vonage isn't sending the phone number in the "name" field as well as the "number" field. Att provisioned for number (only) delivery does not send a name field. In the past, we discovered the td will not do the table substitution if the CO sends anything in the name field. You can strip the "1" in the 125 and 126 setting (delete 1, add none). But I don't think that will fix the substitution problem. This is affected by the local area code field too, with mandatory 10 digit, we use "999" as area code. Years ago, we had a client that went from name delivery to name and number delivery. We lost the ability to replace "their name" with "N E Branch" based on the number. Let us know if you find a hidden fudge bit (990) to fix it! cid was such a kludge when they added name and number starting with -1 -larry _________________________________________________________________ KX-T Mailing list --- http://kxthelp.com/ Subscription changes: http://kxthelp.com/mailman/listinfo/kxt
