How to call phone number

[Nader]

I'm using VB.Net 2005. I want to to know if I can use a code to connect with vb and line phone(modem). it's mean:
If I have a TextBox on the form and insert a number of telephone. and call the number from TextBox. it must call this number from the phone line that connect to PC.

Like Skype does, right?

 

[Nader]

Not exactly. only use the text to call instead of dial up the phone that connect to the PC.

 

[cjard]

execute the command

rasdial /PHONE:<number>

 

[Nader]

What do you mean... do you mean insert this in command button.

 

[cjard]

I'd do it in a dos window first, check it works

 

[Nader]

Are you telling me you don't know how to open a DOS window on your computer, and type things into it?

This is a DOS window/command prompt:

Do you know what it is? Do you know how to use it?

If not.. we'll scrap that line of enquiry. Look up how to use a serial port in VB.NET, and send the command:

ATDT012345

Where 012345 is the phone number to dial

I looked to the Communication >> Hyper Terminal >> Connect to on PC , and found that it using the modem to call Phone number. so I inserted the name of modem in the : mdPhone.Port , But didn't succeed.

Imports ATSMS
Dim mdPhone As New GSMModem
mdPhone.Port = "I entere the name of modem"
txtPhoneNumber.Text = mdPhone.MSISDN

 

[cjard]

Your PC has a GSM modem? Is it a Windows Mobile device?

 

[Nader]

it's normal phone not mobile.
I cant' understand what do you mean GSM but here is the pic of modem on my pc.

 

[cjard]

GSM is a mobile telephone network system, I don't think your modem is GSM. Why don't you just get a serial port tutorial out and send the command ATDT01234567890 into the serial port? It will cause the modem to dial 01234567890
