Ok, Derek. The only thing you need is a fax printer driver. If you have Winfax, or Zetafax, that could do. I'm using Microsoft fax now, since it comes with Win2k.
To create the TIF file, you just set the printer to the fax printer, and then issue your report command to file, i.e:
set printer to name "Fax"
report form Whatever noconsole to file "Attach.TIF"
Then, you just attach this file to your email. I use MapiSession and MapiMessage controls to send the emails, i can also explain how to use them if you need.
HTH,
Jaime

P.S: if you issue the normal REPORT form Whatever to file Myfile, this creates a file named "Myfile.txt", wich you will have to rename afterwards to Tif, so the above takes care of that.

Why do programs stop working correctly as soon as you leave the Fox?
