	I don't think any *single* package will do exactly what you'd
like. It sounds like you need Easy Alarms. EA 2.0 can send AppleEvents
to other applications. Have it tell HyperCard (you *do* have HyperCard
don't you?) to do the dialling. You could have QuicKeys do the same
thing but QK costs a lot more than EA and despite other peoples' fascination
with it, I don't recommend it to my friends. I use EA and I am very
happy with it.

Just my two sense ;^). I have no affiliation with Essential Software except
as a satisfied user of Easy Alarms.
