Dave

I wasn't planning to have the plugin keep a log of calls as such, I
imagined
the user might script this from within HS on a CID event if it was a
requirement.
Having thought about it though, it wouldn't be too difficult to log to a
comma delimited text file. Would that do? Maybe that could be parsed to an
asp web page? (beyond me I'm afraid!)

Having lights flash etc depending on who is calling might be a bit tricky.
HSP doesn't have the facility to run a script based on CID. Rich (HS
creator) suggested you would have to script it in HS and do a phonebook
lookup.
I hope to persuade him to include the ability to run a script from within
HSP, much in the same way you can play a specific wav file depending on who
is calling.

Cheers,
Justin.
