Hello there,
I could not find a forum to post my information,
but wanted to share so other users can use it.
I found a solution for the problem that Windows
2000 and XP do not automatically startup the client of WHFC when printing to the
Postscript Hylafax printerdriver.
I bascically use the Networkfax "Hylafax" only from
Ms Word. Ms Word supports the writing of macros. So I wrote the following
MAcro:
Sub Netwerk_Fax()
'
' Netwerk_Fax
Macro
' Netwerk_Fax
'
Dim stAppName As
String
stAppName = "C:\...path
to... \whfc.exe"
Call Shell (stAppName,
1)
ActivePrinter = "Netwerk
fax"
Application.PrintOut FileName:="",
Range:=wdPrintAllDocument, Item:=
_
wdPrintDocumentContent,
Copies:=1, Pages:="", PageType:=wdPrintAllPages,
_
Collate:=True, Background:=True,
PrintToFile:=False
End Sub
The line starting with "Dim" and the three lines
that follow startup an external application "hylafax in this case" from the MS
Word MAcro. This way the client is started and a fax can be send...easy as
that...
I hope you can put this somewhere so that people
can be helped to automate their work more easily....thanks,
Jochen
