I am trying to send a fax in Word 2007 using my PC's Modem but no luck. The
only option is to use internet Fax service. This is not like before with Word
2003, does anyone have any ideas on this.

Thanks
Kael

You should be able to 'print' to the fax driver with *any* software.
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm is aimed at previous Word versions,
but the principle remains the same.

You are right, Word 2007 is annoying. There is no dedicated fax button or
command, you have to manually print to your fax software. Whoever wrote Word
2007 clearly doesn't own a fax machine.
