subject: how can I...

Hello,
    I use QmPro 1.53 for Dos. Sometimes I help a friend to set up a
modem once in a while. I found a program I can use in a batch file that
will count rings of the phone rings and act depending on the number of
rings. It can start my Host mode, or fax receive, or send a fax. The
problem is it is undependable. It locks up sometimes, and sometimes not.
I'd hate to be at another computer and "depend" on this thing working
just to have it lock up on me. And with no one home to reset my system
I'd be screwed.
    What I want is:
          To be able to start QmPro, execute a script (I can do this),
and have the script detect a phone ring and act depending on the phone
rings it detects. Can this be done?
       Or:
         Find a program that works. The one that locks up is
Remctl.52.zip. I have dl'ed other programs that you can use for remote
operation, but all I want is to act on the ring count. Like, call from a
remote computer, ring the phone once, it starts Qmpro Host, that type of
thing.
       Or:
        Any suggestions...
       Also, I could use a Debug script that will create a program that
will execute a Cold Boot. I have one for Warm Boot.
                                            Thanks,
                                                    Phill
