Is it possible to send a fax using VB.Net?

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to send a fax document from VB.Net?

If it's possible, how is it done?


Thanks for any help,
Liam.

I would like to know as well.

windows XP (and possibly prior versions) have faxing built in that you can automate

requires it to be installed though (which needs the XP CD) so I guess its usablity would depend on if this is an internal office app, or an app you will be distributing

Thanks Matt,

The requirement to do this went away, but I'll keep your reply on file for the next time it comes up.

Thanks again,
Liam.

i wrote a fax program in VB6 that semi automates a program called FaxTalk Messenger Pro and Word because I was sick of getting up to fax people stuff all the time. the fax app installs itself like a printer (i think MS fax does this as well) so I automate word to open the doc file and change the printer to the fax driver, and then print the doc. This sends it to the fax program and faxes it to the customer.

Reason I say its semi automated is because I still have to put in the customers phone number/name because you cant pass those values to the fax program. MS fax program might allow for that since they are all about automation
