Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way to fax multiple
documents to one recipient using Word 2000. I know it can
be done in Outlook using attachments, however I want to do
it from Word.

Thanks in advance,
Traci

That would depend entirely on your fax software, which you have yet to
mention.

I've been solely using Word 2000 to actually send the
faxes. I'll go to the file menu and select print, and
select the fax machine (it's a multi-function printer/fax)
from the dropdown list, and then send the fax that way.
What I want to be able to do is send multiple documents to
this fax, by perhaps attaching another document. Is there
a way to do this? If you need more information, let me
know.

Thank you.

Word has no faxing capability. It simply calls whatever fax program you have
installed. Only you would know which one that is. Which one did you install?
If it is not a Microsoft Fax product, then you must ask the manufacturer of
your fax software how and whether this can be done.

When I am ready to fax, and select the fax machine
under "print", it brings up an interface that's called LAN-
fax. It must not have the appropriate capabilities to fax
multiple documents at once, because nothing I have tried
works consistently.

Thanks anyway.

If you have winfax starter edition with your Office2000, there is a way.

Firstly you may choose WinFax Stater Editon as your default printer.
Then on Explorer you may click the documents you want to send with Control
key and left mouse button clicking, and with "Print" of short-cut menu by
right mouse
button clicking these documents will be sent by fax.

Or "Send to" Winfax Starter Editin on short-cut menu also send these
documents
by fax.
