Default How to activate and control modem from VBA Excel

Hello ! I am designing an application to access a PBX using serial
connection. I want to access Hyperterminal from VBA, in order to
connect the PBX using a dial up connection. How can I set up, activate,
and send and receive data from modem, using VBA ?

Thanks in advance.

in VBA you need to reference the Microsoft TAPI library. Look for TAP
examples in google. The code is the same as in VB
