I don't think there is going to be much in BitPim to help you.   You
basically just need to know how to send commands to the phone, and
that will be different in Delphi (I don't know what Delphi is).

For many cell phones, you can send the command "AT+CDV##########",
where ########## is the phone number you want to dial to make a voice
call under computer control.  I just tried that with a Sony 8100, so
it will probably work on other Sanyo phones.

To try it out use a terminal emulator such as Hyperterminal or kermit.
