Mark,

There's still something I can't quite get to work on my caller-ID routines:

When a call comes in from an Unknown Name ("?") with valid number which I've
defined a name for in my Caller-ID file, setting the Caller-ID-C item to LOG
or SPEAK works properly.  But the Caller-ID-Name item continues to be "?",
breaking what I'm trying to do: only announce the number if the name is
totally unknown (from phone company, and from my CID file).

Am I still doing this wrong?


LOG OUTPUT:
-----------
O 08/22  9:33 PM:Call from My ISDN Line at 626-5410
O 08/22  9:33 PM:Call from 626-5410


Program snippet:
----------------
|       BEGINIF Caller-ID-C             Is Not Now      None
|       Do      Text-A                  T1<-T1          MSG:Call From
|       Do      Text-A                  Set             <Space>
|
|        	For debugging only:
|       Do      Caller-ID-C             Set             Log
|
|       If      Caller-ID-Name          Is              Question Mark
|       Then    Text-A                  T1/A<-T1        Caller-ID-Number
|       Else    Text-A                  T1/A<-T1        Caller-ID-Name
|
|        	Announce it:
|       Do      Text-A                  Set             Display/Log/Speak
|       ENDIF
