Tim,

You might need to be at read events to get the event to fire. You could use a timer to run some code repeatedly while the fax is being sent without staying in a loop.

I tried adding a DoEvents inside of my loop. I'm stuck. Will the ActiveX control's events only fire when sitting at a READ EVENTS?
