1- initiate connectiion
2- Select an Address
3- make a call

when i make a call i execute the function
ITAddress::Crea teCall the first parameter it takes is the
distination address (BSTR bstrAddressToCa ll)
bstrAddressToCa ll will be the phone number
to define bstrAddressToCa ll i write the following code

ITAddress * pAddress;
char *szAddressToCal l="+2 (02) 82-4570988";
BSTR bstrAddressToCa ll = SysAllocString( (OLECHAR*)
szAddressToCall );
if(S_OK == pAddress->get_DialableAd dress
(&bstrAddressTo Call))
MessageBox("ok" );
else
MessageBox("no" );
pAddress->CreateCall(
bstrAddressToCa ll,
LINEADDRESSTYPE _PHONENUMBER,
TAPIMEDIATYPE_A UDIO , //Media type

You will find more help on using TAPI in the

microsoft.publi c.win32.program mer.tapi

group than you will here. I suggest that you post any follow-up to your
question again in that group.

The Platform SDK has a sample named Dialer in its subfolder

samples\netds\T api\Tapi2\Diale r

It looks a lot like the old dialer that was included with 95 many years ago.
It will do what you want. But perhaps unfortunately for you it uses the
earlier procedural C API rather than the new COM based API of TAPI3. (Many
of us consider that a good thing. <BWG>)

As this is a .dotnet group, I should point that if you are using a
managed language you might want to check this link which describes a
simplified
C# wrapper for TAP 2:

http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=5d893af6-b340-49d8-9162-b90bf6932414

I haven't tried, but it shouldn't be hard to convert to (or perhaps consume
in) Managed C++
