Serial port under Win95/NT

Hi All…

I am hoping for some help, but let me explain my problem first, and then how I where planing to solve it..

Problem.:
I have a program used to configure some measuring equipment, the program uses a normal serial port under windows 95, the problem is that I have placed a modem at the equipment and one on my PC, but this program don’t support a modem connection… hmm, now I have temporarily solved this by using an old dos based terminal (telix), to dial up the equipment, then I terminate telix under win95 (the connection I keept open) and then start the configuration prog. (Yes it works)… but this cant go on…

How I where hoping to solve it…
I where planing to make a little Visual C prog, there when you start it asks for a phone number, dial’s the number, when it is connected, it should then create a "virtual" com port the configuration program can use, this "virtual" com port should be "routed" to the modem… BUT how do I make a "virtual" com port???????

Or do you have any other ideas to how I could solve this??
