Anton,

	Very easy with Goto()...

	Lets say you have a "friends" context that allows calls to any number 
or extension.  This is all you have to do:

[macro-stdexten]
exten => s,1,DBGet(TRANSEXT=DNDFWD/${ARG1})
exten => s,2,Goto(friends,${TRANSEXT})
exten => s,102,Dial(SIP/${ARG1},2) ; or whatever you use now...
exten => s,103,Voicemail(u${ARG1}) ; you get the point...
exten => s,104,Hangup ; duh

	Then if you really wanted to get fancy-in-the-pantsy, you could setup 
another extension like so:

[internal-phones-only]
exten => 1000,1,Answer
exten => 1000,2,Read(FWDNO)
exten => 1000,3,DBPut(DNDFWD=${CALLERIDNUM}/${FWDNO})
exten => 1000,4,Playback(vm-goodbye)
exten => 1000,5,Hangup

...or something like that...
