Hello netters,

Is it possible to charge a modem call to my MCI card instead of the
phone line I'm using?

I am going on vacation and will occasionally call my office computer
from another computer (remote) via modem.  When connected, the phone
time is charged to the remote phone line.  Instead, can I would like
to use my MCI card to charge the call to my MCI long distance service.

Is this possible?  My MCI card says to do the following for regular
phone (voice) calls:
	1. dial the MCI number & wait for a tone
	2. dial 0+phone number & wait for a tone
	3. finally, dial the MCI 14-digit code

Will I need a chat script (or something similar)?

Please email your reply.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks...
