Hello Doug,
                          Thank you for your response, if you see my 
e-mail above, i wanted the Read to happen after the Call is connected 
(i.e after Dial ), and the Calle's digit to be collected.
In the above case, i find that the Read happend before the Dial ? I 
tried the above snippet, but id does not work for me.

Here is my scenario, Caller XYZ  calls an extension , example , 807 , 
Then a Dial happens to 807 in the dial plan , 807 answers, now 807 
inputs a Digit and i need that !

How can i collect the Digits input by the Callee ? anyway i can 
accomplish that  ?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Simith
