I have a customer who wishes to send faxes from his laptop and i believe ther
is a plug in for word that enables you to do this. How and from where do i
get it. Many thanks, Andrew.

The software for sending faxes from Windows via an old-stle faxmodem is
built-in to Windows 2000 and XP, although you may have tio install it using
Control Panel|Add or remove programs|Add//remove Windows Components, at
least in Windows 2000. Once installed, there are various possible ways to
send a fax, including printing from the application to the "Fax printer",
whose driver asks for the necessary faxnumber etc. The people in the Outlook
newsgroups/communities probably know more about that, and the newer Internet
fax services.

If your customer is trying to Mailmerge to fax from Word, see

If your customer wants to send via the Internet, there are fax services
which you have to sign up for. They may work in a variety of ways (e.g., you
might have to e-mail the fax, or print to a "virtual fax" device). Looking
for "fax services" on Google seems a reasonable place to start.
