[comp.lang.c++] Accessing Modem via bioscom command

I have been
trying to access my Hayes compatible modem by using the bioscom 
command, listed in Turbo C++ 2.0 Library Reference Manual, pages 36-38.
When I run the sample program, nothing happens.
How do I send the appropriate characters to the modem to get it to dial out,
etcetera?
