Microsoft Fax will let you do this. Of course, if you on't specify the number, it will pop up and ask you. Following is some code I copied from here a fewmonths back. My apologies to whoever posted this, I cannot remember, so I cannot give credit:

>thisform.oleMessage.MsgSubject = "This is your Subject"
>thisform.oleMessage.MsgNotText = "This is your Message Text"
>thisform.oleMessage.ResolveName() && this acually sends it
>thisform.oleMessage.Message.Send(.F.) && this supresses dialog
box
>thisform.oleSession.Signoff() && sign off mail
>
>5. Just gather your data and place them in the appropriate places and
call
>thisform.SendFax().
