I have an ActiveX control for faxing records out of a table. I also have a timer control on the same form for scanning the table for records that need faxing.

VFP code in Timer event of Timer1 -

SELECT faxrectable
SCAN && Process one record at a time and send it to its destination.
&& A bunch of lines of code here that build a fax file (this all works)
THISFORM.FaxManJr1.SendFax
ENDSCAN

Is there another way to do this? If I remove the SCAN...ENDSCAN, SendFax works great. If I leave SCAN...ENDSCAN in the Timer1 the looping continues before SendFax can finish what it is doing and then that causes an error. It doesn't help to put THISFORM.Timer1.Enabled = .F. because SendFax is within the Timer1 and I think then SendFax stops doing its thing.

If I put the THISFORM.FaxManJr1.SendFax outside the Timer code, then everything seems to work as it should, but then I am wondering how I should keep looping through my table to find records that have not been faxed or should be refaxed due to errors in faxing?

Got any ideas? I am pulling my hairs out, one by one. But I need a haircut anyway so it's OK.
