Fax from Access using SendObject method of DoCMD

[Ellen]

I used to do this from Win95 and Access95/97 with great
success. I now want to do this for WinXP and
Access2002. Where can I get MS Fax software, and will it
run on WinXP (with Fax Services already installed)? The
Knowledge Base still has articles for doing this (231797
and 299016), but no info on where to get Microsoft Fax
and making it run on WinXP.

Anyone done this? Am I asking for the impossible?

Thank you for your time and help!

Ellen:

On WinXp you don't need MS fax. You use the built in fax services and add
them to Outlook. How you do this varies a little by what version of Outlook
you are using.

If on Outlook 2000, from the Tools -> Services menu item, select to add a
sevice and then add the Fax Mail Transport. In Outlook 2002, you choose
Tools -> Email accounts -> Add EMail Account -> Additional Server Types and
then select the Fax Mail Transport.
