TAPI Flash

I have a TAPI  (2.2) application that collect calls.
I need to add an option to 'Flash'  to the app.
Any ideas how to do it?

I think you are wanting to monitor for a FLASH signal from the phone.  That comes in like any other button as a PHONE_BUTTON message in your tapi callback.

What do you mean by this?

what I need is to create flash signal on an open line that I collect before.
My app. is a desktop win32 program that simulate phone instrument and record the activity of the operator. I need to limited the flash button that there is at any phone system.
I think you forgot this question. I will ask Community Support to close it unless you finalize it within 7 days. Unless there is objection or further activity,  I will suggest to refund the points and delete this question since nobody had a complete answer for you.

As i know, you wish to hang up incomming call and watch
again for new ringing? If so, use:
lineDeallocateCall(hCurCallstatehCall);
where hCurCallstatehCall is HCALL you obtain during
processing
case LINE_CALLSTATE:
   hCurCallstatehCall=(HCALL)hDevice;
.....

If you have answered by lineAnswer(), than must call lineDrop().
Depending of what OS you are using, there may need to
close line and reinitialize line (in Windows95 there
are errors in TAPI interface, about other MS OS - i don,t know).

As I understood the 'Flash' button on the telephone device create a disconnecting for short time on the line.
The main reason I need it is for:
1. Create a conference call between incoming call to the system and another extension.
2. Forward the incoming call to another extension.
