 Joe, I've looked at several of the Caller ID packages out there, and havn't been able to get them to work for me.    Yours looks promising, but I'm not interested in using it with a database.

Is there a way to use it sans database?

While we are on the topic, is there a simple way I can read the raw caller ID input from my modem without
connecting to it manually?
