CALLERID V 1 . 0
                             ----------------

This .PPE checks the secrity level of a user and if within the specified
range, checks the Caller ID info for the phone number. If a number is
found, then it writes it to the file specified.

Usage:

!CallerID.PPE SecLow;SecHigh;IDType;CIDFile;PrivateFile;OutsideFile;NoMatchFile

Where:
     SecLow is the lowest level to display the file to
    SecHigh is the highest level to display the file to
     IDType is the type of Caller ID info or Position of the PhoneNumber+11
            Predefined formats are 1-10
            1 = Supra - scan for "NMBR = "           6
            2                                        7
            3                                        8
            4                                        9
            5                                       10
    CIDFile is the caller ID file to create
PrivateFile is the file to be displayed if the ID indicates Private
OutsideFile is the file to be displayed if the ID indicates Outside Area
NoMatchFile is the file to be displayed if the ID does not match Users Record

CIDFile, PrivateFile, OutsideFile and NoMatchFile are optional and any or
all (but that would make this PPE pretty useless) can be skipped.

!CallerID.PPE 10;80;1;CALLERID;C:\PCB\GEN\IDPRIV;;
!CallerID.PPE 0;255;1;CALLERID;;;C:\PCB\GEN\NOTHVBD

The above examples assume you are placing this PPE file in the PCBOARD.DAT
directory for each node. Since that is not the best way to do things, make
sure you specify the full path (unless a default is added to PCBSetup in
the future). ie.

!C:\PCB\PPE\CallerID.PPE 10;80;1;CALLERID;C:\PCB\GEN\IDPRIV;;

I was using this PPE in my level 10 (New User who registers) and level 15
(User who has gone thru INSTAREG door but not been through PCBVerify Door
yet) files. The origional purpose was to get the CALLERID file created so
that PCBVerify would be able to use it to skip the actual callback and verify
the User quickly. I changed this to my ALL file which gets displayed to
everyone when I added the PrivateFile Feature to announce to Users who had
CallerID blocked that such calls would no longer be allowed (I haven't decided
if I will go this route yet or not, I would like to use a TPA to allow certain
Users to block the ID, and don't want to setup security levels to control this,
but I added this to the PPE with this in mind).

I have attempted to strip extra characters [like -()+ and extra spaces]  out of
the Phone Numbers read from the Users Record before matching them but If you
are aware of other characters that show up, let me know. I try to match only
the portion that is in the User Record, so if the User Record contains no
area code, it should still match the Caller ID string which will have an
area code. If you try to use this feature and it reports the Caller ID number
does not match either User Record Phone number when it should match, let me
know what all the numbers contain. I added this feature even though I don't
plan to use it myself.

I need more information on other Modems that support Caller ID to add support
for them directly. Also, I need more information on the data returned in
different areas of the country in case it is different (even with the
same brand of modem) than in my area.

You can use this PPE in any display file and it was written to allow you
to tailor it's use with the command line arguments so modification and
recompiling the source code should not be needed, but it is included here
for study by those who want to write their own or those who desire to add
some other feature.
