>>Does anyone know how to send automated faxes in VFP? Can it be done using CreateObject("Outlook.Application") if the user has Outlook set up to use the Microsoft at Work fax program? Are there any other solutions? A code example would be great.

>I looked into this about a year ago because a client told me they wanted to that feature. The word I got at the time was that the best solution was to get WinFax Pro and use automation objects based on that. I bought a copy of WinFax Pro, but then the client never gave me the goahead, so I haven't done anything with it.

I'd second that - WinFax Pro is easy to use, and has both DDE and ActiveX/automation interfaces available. I believe that you can configure WinFax to work with Outlook as well, but I don't have the details of what the autoation scheme for it would be.
