  • Hi,

    You could use TAPI (Telephony API). When a call created in the network you could use the TAPI to capture the call and rise event. The best way to start is to use IP-Phone systems, while it is much easier. Then, based on the event you have to search on the contact or account table to see if the number exists. Then you could show the name of the contact or account based on the search results. For licensing or authentication purposes it is better to create a server application and a client application (which connects to the server application). The client application is (as you know) a windows application which pops up on the event. Then you could place buttons on the pop up window to open the call form.

    BTW, you could search for some ISV products and find some trial ones to test and capture ideas.

As soon as the phone rings, the form should pop-up on the screen, and the phone number will be display on the phone number field. I just want to create a simple CRM Dynamics form. Really i dont know how to create that, and also i am new at CRM Dynamics. so, help me to find out the solutions of this.

    Thanks.
