I downloaded a faxing database from (called FAX2k.mdb) for Access 2000. The module is very useful, but I can't get it to do what I need so far. I've built a query that returns several contacts. I need to send a fax to each of these contacts, with the report being a cover page for each contact.

Currently, when I create a custom report, only the first page of the report will show up in WinFax (associated with the first query contact result).

Does anyone have any experience with faxing from access to winfax pro? Is there a simpler method of making a query result available to winfax?
 
Could you not modify the coding in either the fax form or fax report forms to collect and open a query and transfer the relevant data. Then use the existing fax procedures to send the fax.

That would be the way I would approach problem.
 
I tried that, but the report sent to Winfax would always show only the first contact name, no matter what contact the fax was being sent to! So we got the SDKsend sample module from the WinFax Pro 10.0 install cd and made our own faxing module. Thanks for the input!!!
