Default fax from word or outlook

Convince me you have Windows Fax and Scan. If you did, you could add it to
add it to your Outlook profile. State your Vista version.

Thanks for this information but it only worked out one step.

I have set up a MSMAIL.INI file and this makes sure that word 2007 sents
my
mail merge document to Outlook, although it gives me the message that
outlook
does not recognize a number and needs and email.

Now when I want to set up a Fax Transporter in my outlook profile it only
gives me the choice of
1) MS Office Outlook connector
2) Outlook Mobile service

I do have Windows Fax and sending one document via this program is not a
problem. But can I also use it for sending mail merge documents.

You can try the approach at http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/ but I do not know
if
it still works with Vista and/or Word 2007.

in
your Outlook Profile but that option does not show up if I add account
in
my profile
