Thanks for your response. It hasn't fixed the problem, but has certainly
given me some clues to work with.
While rasphone works fine on my Vista Business system, on my customer's
Vista Home Premium system we get "Remote Access Phonebook has stopped
working." When I researched that, I found it was blocked by DEP, and when I
tried to remove it from DEP we get "This program must run with data
execution protection (DEP) enabled. You cannot turn off DEP for this
program."
