>If this is in Word, why not use the WinFax Macro for Word 6.0 or 7.0 to do this?

Didn't know it existed. Don't have time to learn it.

>What does VFP have that is related to this project.

Table of contracts to fax.

>If it is a table of phone numbers, export it to a text file, excel file or whatever the macro needs to do the mail merge that will fax it out.

Actually, Word is able to read a VFP table.

One thing I forgot to tell in my original message, is that the merging process must start automaticaly every half hour.

I think I've made it. Here's what I've done:

- System Agent will start the VFP application every half hour
From VFP:
- Send the parameters to WinFax (cover page, send to, etc.)
- Open the merge document in Word
- Word default printer is set to WinFax
- Send merge to file
- Print the file

I'm sure that's not the best way to do it, but it seem to work.

Thabks for your help
