I'll try again but I really thought I had given all I know. One last time
then.
I am on XP SP2.
My isp is Virgin and is ADSL through an external modem.
When I use Outlook 2002 I can send and receive emails and my browser works
fine. I also have a dial-up modem connected and functioning.

What I want to do is to use windows dialer to dial numbers from my contacts
addresses so that I do not have to key them in by hand. Since this is what
my telephone does as it is on the same, and only, outgoing line. When I
hear the number dialling from the modem noise, I can the pick up the normal
telephone handset and wait for the call to connect.
As I mentioned before, I have another address book which does exactly this,
so I know it is possible.
Currently I have an email client + an address book + a calendar and would
like to have them all in one ie Outlook.
