you can send the file/text to the printer object. The fax modem( that is what you have right) can be set up as a printer. Do this under the printer settings.

Thanx to jmt* but the problem is more complex (my fault i had not explain it deeper).
Here is running a fax server (faxsvc.exe) on NT server and I would like to talk with him/it. I can use printer which is connected with this fax server but I would like to know If is possible for example in Excel type fax number in some cell and then just click on a button and then just wait for msgbox "FAX SUCCESSFULY SEND TO xxxxxxxxx" or "ERROR".
My comp has WIN98 and OFFICE2000
