Faxing from within FWH, is this possible?

Post by John »

Hi,

Is it possible to Fax directly from within FWH, using an oldfashioned faxmodem? (Like with the old Faxual II lib for Clipper) I don't want to use an external driver because i want to be in full control..

Thanks in advance,

John.

Hi Silvio,

thanks for your reply. I only found 'FiveWin connection to GFI FAXmaker' on that site, is that what you mean?

Best regards,

John.

Friend,

You can try use the API interface in 32BitFAX. Is a text file based API and easy to use.

You create a DELIMITED text file and save in 32BitFAX directory:

Format:

"Y","Name","Phone","date to delivery","time to delivery","subject"

Example:

"Y","Rochinha","55-11-3903-4461","03-15-2006","10:30:00am","Rochinha is a nice guy"

The 4 e 5 parameters is not necessary.

Generate the file named Send2Fax.del with all recs number you decide and save in a ?:\32BitFax directory.

Code Example:

set printer to Send2Fax.prn
...
your code here
....
set printer to
__CopyFile( "Send2Fax.prn", "C:\32BitFax\Send2Fax.prn" )
__RenameFile( "Send2Fax.prn", "C:\32BitFax\Send2Fax.del" )

Hi Rochinha,

can you tell me where to find this app? Still i don't think i will have full control over the sending process, because you have to hand over the control to the app, after writing the Send2Fax.del file, right?

Thanks,

John.

Friend,

The 32bit Fax return a file .LOG to your control in the same directory.

Try download in:

http://files.supereva.com/cgi-bin/down5 ... fax&lan=en

or

http://www.pcwelt.de/downloads/tools_ut ... re/102853/

This app contains a good help file about this feature.

If you use activex in your aplications, try FACSys.OCX, easely found on www.google.com
