How to program voice modem?

Question

I'm looking into writing a small custom app for a small business that can utilize a voice modem on Windows to pick up a phone call and play a customized voice message based on time of call.

The API on Windows that controls modems is TAPI, but it seems complex and low level that I'm not sure I can complete the app in time.

Any higher level API or software component I can use to accomplish what I need?

Thx

Answer 1

I think you'll need to look at 3rd party libraries for this. A quick google search turned this one up (though I've never used it).

Answer 2

I'm not sure what programming language you need, but I found many projects that may have elements you are looking for on CodeProject.com and SourceForge.net. I could make suggestions from the sites, but perhaps it would be better to leave it to you, as you know what project would best meet your needs. Doing a search on TAPI or telephony gave a lot of results, but I didn’t seen an already made project doing what you described above.

I hope these suggestions help you make your deadline, good luck.
