John,
Well, i'm not just a starter in using dde with winfax 8. I've used it a lot. But i have some problems with it:

I must send several foxprow reports trhough winfax, so i set with ddepoke the recipient and then i issue report to printer noconsole to the winfax printer. That works fine, but if you send one report, then another one etc., suddenly in one of the sends the winfax window 'send to' appears and i must reenter the recipient fax number. It seems to lose the recipient. This error occurs each time in different recipients. I've tested to put a 'wait window timeout' command after each report and works much better but not perfectly. That's why i'm looking for use ole automation instead of DDE. ¿Do you have experience on this? Thanks otherwise.

Carlos.
Saludos,
A.G.P.
