Setting off Hardware Flowcontrol with TAPI
I'm not exactly sure if this is the correct newsgroup.  Please forgive me if
I've misjudged...

Does anyone know if there is a TAPI command to set off hardware flow
control?

I have a vender that has provided a DLL that we use for communications. We
have found that this DLL does not work for about 80% of modems we tested. He
is using TAPI.  After much more testing, we found that if we turn hardware
flow control off, the DLL works perfectly. I have contacted the vender and
he said he would put this in for free if I could tell him how to do it.

I have done some research, but have not found anything that allows this.
Without his source, it is harder for me to tell him how to do it. However,
I'm hoping that this is a simple TAPI setting that will allow hardware flow
control to be set off. Does anyone know how this is done?

(Yes, if it were up to me, we would tell the vender to get stuffed, that we
are the customer, that he should fix his own da#% code, etc, etc. My boss
says we have been doing business with him too long to easily make changes
now...)

Thanks.  Ron
