I see many questions about the lack of the support for distinctive ring in XP
but all replies seem to direct users to a hardware solution. I don't think a
hardware solution will work for me and was hoping to find a software
solution. The reason I don't think hardware will do it for me is that I use
Call Notes (voice mail) on the main number and fax on the distinctive ring
number on the same line. I think these hardware devices will cause my VM not
to pick up the call??? Any suggestions???

Yeah I have similar set up with voicemail what you do is find out how many
rings until your voicemail picks up and set up your fax to answer one ring
later hope that helps, my voicemail answers on the seventh ring. so fax
answers on 8th

or solve the problem and use one program for both, I would recommend
Cheyenne I was using it before I upgraded to XP.
