    using a modem

    tutorial says the below code will use modem to dial a number but when a run it does not use the modem what is wrong with it?



    #include &ltfstream.h>

    void main()
    {
    char c;
    ofstream modem("COM1:");
    cout << "Resetting MODEM to Dial\n";
    cout << "ATZ OK\n";
    modem << "ATZ\n";
    modem.flush();
    cout << "Anykey to dial\n";
    cin >> c;
    cout << "Dilaing!\n";
    cout << "ATDP3468444\n";
    modem <<"ATDP3468444\n";
    modem.flush();
    cout << "Press anykey to Hang-UP\n";
    cin >> c;
    modem <<"ATH0\n";
    modem.flush();
    cout << "End";
    }

    Perhaps your modem isn't on COM1

    Perhaps your OS doesn't have COM1

    It's definitely wrong to say void main

    Do you have a file called COM1 by any chance?
