$I just tried to dial a rather long number from

$then it appears to not even attempt to dial.

   This isn't a Procomm problem ... it's a modem problem.  Typical Hayes-
compatible modems have a limit on the size of a command string, which is
about 40 characters.  Take off three for ATD and you're left with about
37.
