Chinmay - you may be onto something... the command i need to issue is simply <br />
c:\dial.exe 7325551212 &nbsp;<br />
(the number will change but i can build a custom URL builder to format the URL properly)<br />
<br />
do you know how that would be done with this url handler?

Sure. If you go through the article, it suggests that you enter the path of the executable and then ad %1 at the end of the string. After that you will invoke it by protocolname:\\number.

I have a TAPI-compliant phone system and have installed and configured the TAPI dialer on my computer. I am able to initiate a phone call either using Outlook (when skype is not running) or from Windows Dialer.<br />
<br />
I'm looking to have a CRM application automatically dial contacts. The app can pull the phone #'s from the database, so it essentially needs to either call dialer.exe in a hidden mode and initiate the call to the number, or a similar program.<br />
<br />
does anyone know a program that supports command line switches so it can essentially initiate the call and then dissapear?

IP telephony (Internet Protocol telephony) is a general term for the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Using the Internet, calls travel as packets of data on shared lines, avoiding the tolls of the PSTN. The challenge in IP telephony is to deliver the voice, fax, or video packets in a dependable flow to the user.
