Hi,

I am writing software that will utilize fax/modem boards to send/receive
faxs and data files. Does anyone have a recomendation for
the fax/modem boards... I want to buy boards that offer software that I can
call from my FOXPRO2 program, and that I can get meaningfull completion
status codes back from. Also, I would like to be able to setup the port/FAX
and MODEM from my program. Any ideas ???

Example of how I would like to implement this in my app:

	status=setup("FAX",.....)
	if !Status
		@ 10,10 say "Unable to setup FAX, request aborted"
		return .f.
	endif

	status=send("FAX","file.dat","714-888-3233")
        if !Status
		do case
			case status=BUSY
				.....
			case status=NOANSWER
				.....
			case status=INTERUPTED
				....
			case status=....etc...
				....
			otherwise
				...
		endcase
	else
		@ 10,10 say "Your FAX has been succesfully transmitted"
	endif

					Thanks for your help!
