in ZNT:TIPS Lib 10.
Installation Notes, Download Version ADIAL.ZIP.
-----------------------------------------------
AutoDial requires VBRUN200.DLL. If you do not already have a copy
of this file you can get one from Compuserve. VBRUN200.DLL can be
obtained from Compuserve as VBRUN2.ZIP in the ZNT:TIPS Lib 10.
* UNZIP all files to a temporary directory on your hard disk.
* Copy VBRUN200.DLL to the your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
* From the Windows Program Manager, select File, Run.
* Type the path to the AutoDial setup program. For example,

after selecting File, Run from the Windows Program Manager.
*** Note: The AutoDial installation program copies the following
files to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory:

Program Notes
-------------
To use help, select any of the HELP buttons or simply press the F1 key.
Be sure that your modem is turned on prior to running AutoDial so that
AutoDial can properly initialize your modem. The modem is initialized
at time of startup. If initialization fails, you will be prompted with
an error when you start AutoDial. If this happens, check your modem
connection and or the AutoDial COM port setting, quit AutoDial and restart
the program. Failure to follow this procedure can result in your PC
"hanging".
AutoDial can be configured to use either COM1 or COM2. AutoDial initializes
your modem with the speaker turned off. This is to prevent feedback when
dialing a telephone number with your phone off hook.
If your phone system requires a phone number prefix to access numbers
outside of your building, be sure to configure AutoDial properly. To
configure a phone prefix number select the Config button, highlight the
Phone Prefix field and enter the desired number.
To Dial a phone number, highlight the desired entry and select "Dial Phone".
You will be prompted to continue. Pick up your phone and select "OK". You
will hear the phone begin to dial. AutoDial will dial the number, wait
several seconds, and then send a hangup command to the modem. As long as
you have the phone off hook the call will continue to be processed.
To Dial a beeper number, highlight the desired entry and select "Dial
Beeper". When prompted, select OK. AutoDial will proceed with the
call. You will be notified of the following conditions: BUSY, NO DIALTONE,
NO ANSWER, ERROR.
A maximum of 500 entries is allowed.
*** Note: Entry data is stored in the file PHONE.DAT.
Configuration data is stored in AUTODIAL.INI.
