I have a document I want to FAX and I can't figure out
how to get it attched to the FAX. It is sitting in My
Pictures.

You must do it via Outlook - the fax wizard is for basic documents (no
attachments).

Right click on the picture and select Print.

The Photo Printing Wizard pops up.... go through this until you come to the
part where you select which printer to print it to... Select FAX.

Now the Fax Wizard will pop up.... send it where you want.

Not for attachments, Cari. Must be done via Outlook - learned that from
Russ.

Worked for me that way yesterday, when I had to fax my contact lens
prescription after scanning it... I was impressed, it was the first time I'd
sent a fax on XP! Actually it was the first time I installed the Fax
Services component. I remembered my notebook is the ONLY PC that even has a
dial up modem!

Yes, I confess I did use the KB!

Right. This method works fine for sending a multi-paged fax. The only time
you need to use Outlook to send as attachments is when you have multiple
documents you want to send in a single transmission.

Bruce who - Chambers?! Er, no, he didn't. With all due respect to Bruce,
faxing isn't his field - he is a shell MVP - everything Russell knows is
from his own mind, skill and expertise.

Yes, he is a veritable god of the newsgroups, a fitting mate for any
computer goddess. Hail to Bruce!
