I am trying to send a fax in Word 2007 using my PC's Modem but no luck. The
only option is to use internet Fax service. This is not like before with Word
2003, does anyone have any ideas on this.

Thanks
Kael

You should be able to 'print' to the fax driver with *any* software.
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm is aimed at previous Word versions,
but the principle remains the same.

You are right, Word 2007 is annoying. There is no dedicated fax button or
command, you have to manually print to your fax software. Whoever wrote Word
2007 clearly doesn't own a fax machine.

Unfortunately I am unable to find any way to "print" to FAX using Word 2007
as I could in previous versions.

There is no FAX option listed under "printers".

I'd love it if you could tell me how to do it.

My reply assumed that you had been able to use fax on this PC with an
earlier version of Word as implied in your question.

There is no fax function in *any* Word version. Word simply uses whatever
fax software is installed. It seems that you have no such software installed
on your PC. If you have Windows XP you can add it by re-running setup from
the add or remove programs applet. Later versions of Windows may not include
fax software (certainly not the Home versions of Vista) so for those you
would have to add third party fax software.
