Re: Caller ID routines SF> Where would I find the routine 'FOSSILflush'. Didn't SF> appear in the stuff I ended up getting. Well, there are a number of 'routines' for FOSSIL handling that weren't included in the code I posted. I didn't think that they were necessary for capturing info at 1200bps (can easily be done with 'ordinary' COM routines in QuickBASIC). Anyways, here's the FOSSILFlush: '--------8<-------------------- snip here -------------------->8-------- ' SUB FOSSILFlush ' ' flush FOSSIL transmit and receive buffers ' ' AH = &H09 FOSSIL Function Number - purge output buffer ' DX = Communications port number (0-3) ' ' Note: Regs and PortNo are TYPEd & DIM SHARED in main module ' Regs.AX = &H900 Regs.DX = PortNo CALL Interrupt(&H14, Regs, Regs) ' ' AH = &H0A FOSSIL Function Number - purge input buffer ' DX = Communications port number (0-3) ' Regs.AX = &HA00 Regs.DX = PortNo CALL Interrupt(&H14, Regs, Regs) END SUB ' '--------8<-------------------- snip here -------------------->8-------- Note that FOSSIL detection, initialization, and others are also 'missing' in my original posts. I'd be more than happy to post everything I've got on these but with a copy of Ray Gwinn's X00 (comes with a nice reference sheet and full FOSSIL calls documentation), they can easily be reconstructed.
