Fax and Voicemail

[cblocke3]

Question: Is there a way in Microsoft Windows XP OR Office 2000 that I
can receive faxes AND use the computer as an answering machine? I have
Office 2000 pro installed. I know I can send and receive faxes, but
can I also set it up for a voice answering machine? You know, so I can
leave a message saying something like"... Leave a message after the
beep, or you my begin sending your fax now."

I'd like to find a way for windows to do it, but if there is a cheap
3rd part software, that would be OK, too.

Just search for winxp answering machine. Plenty of them out there, I
haven't used any so won't recommend one. Some are shareware and then up to
$20.

Of course, this assumes your MODEM is a data/fax/voice model. Otherwise, no
amount of software can do that.

You should be able to send faxes in windows using a fax driver, however to
recieve and setup an answer phone system etc you will probably need a third
party application...

Look through your driver disks that came with the PC you may find the the
modem disk has the software required to do this on the disk. *Most* companies
only install the driver to access the modem but not the full anwser phone
suite etc

I use BitWare but don't know if they still operate.
