I suppose it depends on what it is you want to do with the line.
From the example code (includes exe) linked from here
EnumTAPI sample application
http://tapifaq.pennypacker.org/

It looks like you might want
  // Make sure the "comm/datamodem" device class is supported
   lReturn = lineGetID(hLine, 0, 0, LINECALLSELECT_LINE,
      (VARSTRING*)&SmallVarString, "comm/datamodem");
   if (lReturn)
      bSupportsDataComm = FALSE;
   else
      CloseHandle((HANDLE) SmallVarString.handle);
   // Print the comm/datamodem results.
   if (bSupportsDataComm)
      MyPrintf("Y, ");
   else
      MyPrintf("N, ");

XP results:

Thanks for the link. It had some helpful examples. I'm still experimenting 
at the moment.
