Place voice call on bluetooth phone from pocketpc

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi all,

Problem:
I have a vb.net application running on pocketpc / .net compact framework that provides some basic contact management functions and I want to include support for programatically placing a voice call on a paired bluetooth mobile phone.

So, in essence, the user locates a contact in the application, clicks a button next to the phone number and their bluetooth phone dials the number for them.

I'm sure this must be possible, but after exrtensive googling, I still can't find a good angle-of-attack. TAPI? PInvoke? OpenNetCF? If anyone has tackled this (preferably in VB, but I'll take anything right now!) I'd be really glad to hear about it. I'd like to avoid using any commercial 3rd party code if possible - I'm trying to avoid any licensing headaches!

Thanks in advance.

Philip Gray.
