As far as I can remember, the problem with the Outlook 97/Windows 2000
combination is that you can't set up Outlook 97 to work with the Windows
2000 fax service. However, that may be wrong. If you can, then you may be
able to fax using a distribution list. Otherwise, I think you might be
better off trying to mailmerge to fax using a macro. The following article
has not been tested with Word 97, but you may be able to get it to work:

I'm trying to send a fax from Word 97. I can send a fax to one person, but
the problem is trying to get a Distribution list to show up.

Using Contacts in Outlook 97, I've entered the list of 100 organizations
and
their fax number. I have a Distribution List set up in a Personal Address
Book, visible from Outlook 97.

The problem is in Word 97. When I try to send a fax, using either Print
(or
Send to - Fax Recipient) Fax driver shows up in the print dialog. When I
click OK, then the Send Fax Wizard comes up. To enter the addresses, I
click
Address Book, but then the list of contacts and faxes that I entered
previously do not show up. The Distribution List (group) does not show up
either.

Can someone tell me how to get the distribution list to show up? Or can
you
tell me how to fax from Word, to a distribuion list? I'm using Office97
and
Windows 2000 and it does fax correctly to one person.

Thank you,
Bill
