MS Office Forum / Outlook / Fax / May 2005Automatically Send Fax to One Number
I send a lot of faxes to one number. I'd like to be able to make this process as quick as possible. I have Outlook 2000 and XP Pro installed. The Send Fax Wizard I use now requires several steps that are getting tedious. Any suggestions? Thanks. You can send from Outlook, but not if you're using IMO mode. I'm not sure how that really saves any steps. There aren't that many to begin with.  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] >I send a lot of faxes to one number.

Any suggestions? Thanks. If I am looking at a web page, how do I send that page as a fax using Outlook? Now, I just print to the fax printer, which takes me into the Send Fax wizard. Here are the steps Click Print Choose fax printer Click Print Click Next Pick Name from Address Book Click Next Deselect Cover Page Option Click Next Click Next Click Finish That's 10 steps, and that's a pain to do over and over. Maybe I have to crack open my Visual Basic book to automate this. Different question. You can't send a web page from Outlook. You must use the Print routine so your document can be rendered. ------ Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > If I am looking at a web page, how do I send that page as a fax using > Outlook?

Yes, but I'll still be the one answering. There is nothing you can do in the GUI to simplify this process. Windows XP Fax is a bare bones product with no ability for customizing by the end user. You'd need to look into programmatic solutions in one of the programming groups. SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Thanks.

Well, you could use Aloaha PDF Suite. In case your FAX Modem is connected to a XP/2003 Machine you can use the Aloaha FAX Connector. The Aloaha FAX Connector allows you to embed the FAX Number inside the Document. Once you print the Document Aloaha will FAX ist. A nice side effect is that you can even share your XP FAX Service Network wide.

Check www.aloaha.com Aloaha PDF Suite has a build in XP/2003 FAX Connector which means you just embed a command like FAX: <NUMBER> into your document and press print. The rest is being done by Aloaha then. Stefan >I send a lot of faxes to one number. I'd like to be able to make this > process as quick as possible. I have Outlook 2000 and XP Pro > installed.

You can programmatically send faxes but that will be without using Outlook and you can avoid the Send Fax Wizard.
