Phone Dialing

The Auto Dialer can be controlled by pulling down the Tools menu and choosing Dial a Number, or by double-clicking or pressing F2 on a phone number field.

When the dialer starts, it picks up the phone line, waits a moment to get a dial tone, and then dials the number you chose. Pick up your handset to gain control of the phone line.

If you want to hang up without picking up your handset, double-click on the phone number field again, or select Tools from the top menu bar and then select Hang Up Phone.

Phone number fields are indicated with a small up arrow at the end of the field.
