Hi Erik,

Thanks for taking the time to suggest some code to get me started.... unfortunately, looking at this code makes me realize the stumbling blocks I need to overcome.... would it be proper protocol or considered rude to suggest we talk on the phone? Maybe a few minutes could save many hours of back-and-forth forum postings.... You could email your # and I could call you- my email address is richiel@compuserve.com....

The basic problems I am having are that the Symantec WinFax SDK doc is very poor and oriented towards a C++ programmer. It uses terms like connection points, marshaling support and out-of-process servers, which I do not understand. Also, the VFPCOM doc talks about binding events and connections; more gibberish to me unfortunately.

Sounds like you have had exposure to both VFPCOM and the WFP SDK as well; maybe I could tell you a little about my app on the phone and all the good things I *have* done with it... The basic issue is this: When you send a fax request to WFP, it is placed in its "OUTBOX" queue. It sits there while it is waiting to be faxed, and while the fax itself is in progress. Once the fax completes (either successfully or not), the fax moves from the OUTBOX to the SEND LOG.

It is this "event" that I wish to get notification of. Presently, ALL my faxes get stuffed in the Outbox at once; this occasionally causes a timing problem and the app misbehaves... furthermore, if the end user wants to cancell ALL pending faxes, that job is made more difficult... By WAITING or pacing the app to get notification that a single fax has been completed BEFORE STARTING the next one, the inherent instability in my design will have been licked...!!

Thanks again... Rich Lieblich
