    Can Anyone Tell Me How To Send & Receive Faxes Directly Into & Out Of Word '03? I've Tried "efax "; "myfax ", "ringcentral' All Ng. They say That You Can, But In Reality... You Can't.

    My Goal Is To Receive Faxes Into Word So That I Can Add Data, Then Print Them, And To Create Faxes In Word And Then Send Them.

    I'm Not All That Skilled With The Different Formats (tif, Pdf, Yada Yada F, Etc.)

    Anyone?

    The answer is no. Faxing converts documents into bitmaps; after that, they're useless to MS word. You should be able to send directly from Word using any program that installs a printer proxy that prints the fax to your choosen recipient(s).

    The thing you describe that you want to do is ...email.

    Faxing, Etc.

    Ok; So I Guess That's Clear... Sending & Receiving Are 2 Different Things, Yes? I Can Create & Send As An Attachment From Word, But I Can't Receive That Way. Well I Guess 1 Outta 2 Isn't Bad.
    Thanks For The Help.:)

    Faxing, Part 3

    I'VE SIGNED UP FOR A FAXING SERVICE (RING CENTRAL), AND RUN A FEW TESTS, BUT I CAN ONLY SEND FROM OUTLOOK. MS WORD WILL LET ME GO THRU ALL THE MOTIONS, RIGHT DOWN TO THE FORMAT, ATTACHING A WORD DOC. ETC., THEN AFTER I HIT "FILE ", THEN "SEND TO ", THEN "RECIPIENT USING INTERNET FAX SERVICE ", IT ASKS ME TO ENTER A COUNTRY CODE "IN THE DROP DOWN MENU ", BUT IT WON'T LET ME DO THAT !!!!? WHEN I CLICK ON THE DROP DOWN ARROW I GET A BLUE BAR, BUT CAN'T ENTER ANYTHING.:confused:

    WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?

    Not only that, but it is impossible to read (unless using great effort).
