Or even use in some cases..... We have a large complex phone system,
with NO manuals they don't exist (and I've not been able to find any)
and even the engineers who fitted it don't know how to use all the
features.

Such is the modern world.

Back to trying to get phoneweaver to work so when it stops working
again we can throw it back at the people we got it from as a pointless
load of *****
