Phone-book entries contain the information necessary to establish a RAS connection. A user or administrator can use the Dial-Up Networking dialog box to create, edit, and dial phone-book entries.
Beginning with Windows NT Server 4.0, the system supports the functions described for Windows 95, as well as a number of additional functions that an application can use to work with phone books and phone-book entries.
The
RasEntryDlg function displays a property sheet that enables the user to create, edit, or copy phone-book entries. The
RasCreatePhonebookEntry and
RasEditPhonebookEntry functions call the
RasEntryDlg function. You can use the
RasRenameEntry function to rename a phone-book entry, or the
RasDeleteEntry to delete an entry. The
RasValidateEntryName determines whether a specified string has the correct format to be used as an entry name.
You can use the
RasGetEntryProperties and
RasSetEntryProperties to get and set additional information about a phone-book entry. These functions use a
RASENTRY structure.
The
RasGetCredentials and
RasSetCredentials functions get and set the user credentials associated with a specified RAS phone-book entry. These functions use a
RASCREDENTIALS structure.
The
RasGetCountryInfo function retrieves country/region-specific dialing information from the Windows Telephony list of countries.
RasGetCountryInfo uses the
RASCTRYINFO structure.
Windows 95: Supports a limited set of the functions for working with phone-book entries. You can use the
RasCreatePhonebookEntry and
RasEditPhonebookEntry functions to create or edit a phone-book entry. These functions display a dialog box in which the user can specify information about the phone-book entry. You can use the
RasGetEntryDialParams and
RasSetEntryDialParams functions to set or retrieve the connection parameters for a phone-book entry. The
RasEnumEntries function retrieves an array of
RASENTRYNAME structures that contain the phone-book entry names.
