<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Using CCM 4.01</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a question regarding how to modify the Display (Internal Caller ID) field on multiple lines.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a number of phones that are not configured with this info -</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">What I'd like to do is in Excel, create a list of all the DNs that I'd like to add a Display entry for,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">and then write a BAT to mod the lines referred to as DNs.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">What I can do easily in Excel is make this in two columns</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">6605 John Adams</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">How would I convert that info into a BAT file for 4.01 which would mod all the lines that I mention in Column 1?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I know just enough about BAT to know that it might involve lots of extra commas where fields would be blank…</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">but I don't know much more than that…</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Last time I used BAT, it was to provision phones from scratch, not modify existing phones…</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">And I don't see where BAT can mod the Display field, at least not from the GUI….</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">..but maybe from the commandline, BAT could do this and update that field on all phones I specify the DN of?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">thanks, Tim</FONT>
