Thanx to TekTips. GREAT site. Very useful info. Real Experts answering questions. Impressed. Thanx again.

Did search this site for solution, nothing!

Using FPW26 for long time. Wrote Program myself.
Have to use ProComm Plus for In/Out faxes. Do not know any Communication programming.

ProComm has to 'open Win Appli. Retrieve docs. convert to .fax, and then fax.' Somehow can not do that with FPW26.
Maybe FPW is 16bit, or does not have DDE or other problems. ?ProComm can ony use Win Appl. that r 32 bit?

When I try to fax (print to ProComm driver), foxpro comes up with 'printer not ready'.

Other Fax programs work, can print/fax thru Quickink etc.

Also posted this on ProComm Forum.

Thanxx.
Had posted this on6/28/03. But it disappeared.ProComm experts suggested adding FaxDDEDelay=1000 to procomm ini file. Tried. Did not work. Think this is Foxpro problem, not necessarily ProComm problem. Help Please.
