Hi;
This is my 3rd post,but still cant send a fax.Perhaps,there is some
additional settings in Outlook or WinFax Pro that im not aware of.So plz
help me.
Im using MS Outlook 2000 and WinFax Pro 10.02 on Windows ME.Based
documentations and guides, i did the following works in Outlook:
Tools menu \ Services... \ Add... \ WinFax Pro \ Ok \ File menu \ Exit and
Log off
Then i restart Outlook,click on "New" button and in the " To:" box of the
blank msg window i write " [Fax:#######] " that is my own fax No,and in the
Msg body the phrase " This is a test".and i click on "Send" button.now i
expect to hear a dial tone to dial this 7 digit fax no,but immediately the
following message goes to my inbox,that shows there is no integration
between WinFax and Outlook yet.(Msg Information is omitted).

"Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients."
"The following recipient(s) could not be reached:"
.......................
"No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient."

Whats wrong here?Can anyone please help me?I appreciate ur help and thank
you in advance.
THX.
 
Ok,Thank you.
In another way,i want to send an Access Report thru VBA code and via
outlook.I use this code:
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport,"MyReportName",,"[Fax:" & MyFaxNumber &
"]",True
But this message goes to my inbox just after sending it from my code. This
message is associated with a "System Delivery Failure" as its subject and
""No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient." in
the message body.It seems that my code triggers the "New" button rather than
the WinFax button in Outlook tool bar.What i can to do to solve this
problem,and finally send a report through VBA code?
Thank you again.

The Send button never has sent a fax using WinFax Pro. The best you
can do is use the Fax button WinFax places in the toolbar to open the
WinFax Send New Fax window.

See http://www.slipstick.com/addins/utilities/winfax9.htm for more
information.

Send is never, ever going to activate sending a WinFax fax or in
opening up the WinFax Send New Fax window or in clicking the Fax
button.

If you want to send a fax using code and WinFax you will need to
access the WinFax object model to do that. Look at the
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/comaddins.htm page at Slipstick and
download the COM addin sample "Sample written in VBA using Office 2000
Developer" for a VBA COM addin sample that sends a new fax through
WinFax using code. You would need Office 2000 Developer Edition for
this code.

You can also look at the examples in the WinFax SDK, but the examples
are a bit skimpy and not completely clear.
 
Thank you;
I downloaded that file,but it seems Outlook differs from Access in importing
AddIns and i cant use it.What i have to do to install it?can u help me

As I mentioned you will need Office Developer to work with the code in
that application. If you don't have Office Developer you won't be able
to load it.
 
I have it,But still dont know how to use it to open these two files.Can u
please help me?
 
Once the zip file is unpacked you can open the VBA editor (Alt+F11)
and use File, Open Project to open the project.
