>>>I can own up to a real kludge that worked. I ole'd the VFP data from table and text snippets in memo fields into word and then let Winfax convert to an image and sent the fax. Whilst it worked, it was very tedious in compiling a word doc but it allowed for good presentation including images. I also used it as an opportunity to work with word. There must be better ways to go !!

Ryan,

What is an SDK?. i have downloaded it and i see the samples for Visual Basic. It works too in VFP ?. Is like a activex control ?. How must i install this control to use it with VFP ?. i'm absolutely a starter in SDK. Please help me, i'm very interested on this question in order to control winfax from my application.
Now, i do this via DDE, but i've found some bugs in winfax dde. My custom sends daily thousands of faxes to differents numbers, and my application does it automatically from Foxpro 2.6. Now we want to change to VFP using ocx control or similar.
Thanks
