I need some help with a faxing issue

Hi,

I have to create a fax solution where the field that would determine the layout to be faxed would be the 'category' field. The corresponding layout would then be faxed thru Winfax Pro 10.

Can anyone help me with what plugin to choose and a basic script to get me started ?

Thanks, because I'm a bit hopeless, 'cause I'm stuck with this issue.

There is a plug-in (WinFax Plug-in) that interfaces with WinFax up to version 10.00, but not beyond this version. The latest WinFax version removes features the plug-in requires. I just implemented a faxing system with this plug-in and WinFax 9. Faxing is just like selecting a different printer and then printing. To select a layout, I've always used a scripted loop that increments through the layouts checking for the one with the correct name. Something like:

SetField(gLayoutCntr, 1)

Loop

Goto(Layout, gLayoutCntr)

Exit Loop If(Status(LayoutName) = Category)

SetField(gLayoutCntr, gLayoutCntr + 1)

Exit Loop If(gLayoutCntr > Status(CurrentLayoutCount))

End Loop
