I am about to embark on sending faxes in batch mode from within a VFP 6.0 application. I can use either FaxPlus 2.0 or WinFax Pro 9. Based on what I've read in here, I'm leaning towards using WinFax Pro. Does anyone have a code snippet using one of those two tools that does the following?

USE Client
SCAN
lcFaxNo=Client.FaxNo
REPORT FORM ClientRpt NOCON TO FILE FaxFile.PRN
IF Necessary
Convert FaxFile.prn TO FaxFile.PCX or BMP
ENDIF
Send a Fax from TO lcFaxNo
ENDSCAN

I know it's possible to install a FaxPlus printer driver so that the file output is already a PCX or BMP, but my first preference would be for a solution that lets me print to file using the PCL5 HP printer driver and then convert the resulting file into a BMP or PCX.

Or maybe I'm taking the wrong tack entirely.....

Thanks.
