Hi Rashid,
    Ok,  Here is what Juan P. posted up and replied to me.

    I am posting this to the list so if anyone else is interested they can
see/help both of us with it :)

equate a file to your modem port
example file m;dev=200

dynamically) your >beeper number followed by 6 commas followed by the numbers

I then tried this and got errors...Juan replied with the message listed below.

I have tried it with the changes the Juan suggested...it hung up???  I am
confused but had to switch to an emergency project so will get back to it this
weekend :)

Hope this helps...
