Merge Fax

edited November 2005 in General
Hello ALL,

Does anyone know how to (or of any add-ons) to create merged faxes.
I want to fax a customer specific report to each customer.

I assume I can use the Windows FAX printer and MAPI ?

    merging should be no prob with RB.... so, access to the device is a lot
    more difficult.. if it' a printer device that should be no problem
    (like tobit, etc..)

    @ and its
    working (see tobit manual). The same with Fritz! fax where you have to
    manipulate the registry to set the faxno.

    the merged faxes we created in a do.. while... and send them without
    printer dialog to the defined devices, so it's possible to check every
    fax we sent.

    If you want to use MAPI (IMHO) you should load the MAPIDLL and get the
    ProcAdress for sending the message..

    we used that for sending emails by mapi..

    example for finding MAPISendMail:

    MAPIModule := LoadLibrary(PChar(MAPIDLL));
    GetProcAddress(MAPIModule, 'MAPISendMail');

    but afaik is the mapi.pas a very "Simple MAPI Interface"...
