Hi Lance,

I've had good success using dde to automate sending VFP reports to a fax server, FACSys.

I can send you the dde code if you want it. The syntax will be different for a another fax product.

>Hello, I have been trying to do I think the same thing Eric wants to do. Simply send a VFP report to a particular printer driver, but some pass the fax number with the job, so no user intervention is required. I would love to use Microsoft Fax. I currently use MS Fax with Windows Messaging, and I can send the VFP report to the print driver, but you must "To" from your address book or type in a destination. I have not really used DDE before.
