Basic Question on Faxing and SBS 2003

Hiya,

I need to write a VB.net app to fax purchase orders out of an ERP database.

We already have SBS 2003 on the server and Win XP client PCs.

What is the best approach to writing this app?

I am not sure what to use given the environment and if it is feasible at
all. I have spent some time reading posting here and elsewhere but cannot
find a concise guide.
 
I assume you want to use Microsoft Fax that's present on SBS 2003.
You can take a look at the Fax Service Extended COM APIs which are set of
COM objects/interfaces that are completely OLE compatible. So using COM
interop you can make use of them in VB.net straightaway. Knowledge on .NET &
COM interop is required. The MSDN documentation for this APIs is at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/fax/faxabout_699l.asp
