[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] disable call waiting

fsdal1@acad3.fai.alaska.edu (LEVINSON DONALD A) (09/09/90)

can anyone tell me whether there is a way to disable call-waiting 
temporarily from my end using touch-tones so that it doesn't mess
my screen up?

We also have call-waiting here..  There should be a disable code that you
would normally push on the buttons, well, why not just have the tele-
communications program you're using dial those numbers too?  Here at
PSU, the number would be "169,52424"..  where the 169 is the disable
code.  Find out what your code is and plug it into your program, with
the comma in between to indicate a pause..  This should work..  good luck!
