Ralph,

Is there a special reason you need to Read() from inside AGI?  If not, the 
following should work:

--- snippet from extensions.conf
exten => s,1,Read(my_var|sound-file|5|||15)
exten => s,2,AGI(MyAGI,${my_var})
--- snippet ends

--- snippet from MyAGI
$conn=odbc_connect('MSSQL', 'USER', 'PASS');
$query = odbc_exec($conn, "INSERT INTO dialed(number) VALUES('$argv[1]')");
fwrite(STDOUT,"exec saydigits $argv[1] \n");
--- snippet ends
