filemaker3 and dialing

I have been having problems with the 'Dial' steps in filemaker pro 3.0bv4
basically I cannot get filemaker to dial an external modem
It works fine with my 5400 with its internal modem but on the 7100 (OS8.1)
with an external USRsportster 28.8 Vi  - no results
filemaker will dial to the speaker if I set the preferences to do that - but
that is not much use to me
I have tried a number of different initialisation strings with no success
other applications use the modem quite happily (fax and internet) so I dont
think the problem lies there 

can anybody suggest anything, more init strings? or know if version 4 fixes
the problem ( I dont really want to have to dosh out on an upgrade)

You have told it which port your modem's connected to, haven't you?
Edit:Preferences:Application:Modem:Output...
