Faxing a mail merge document |
|
|
Hello. My customer data base is on an excel document and I usually create a
word document, do a mail merge and manually fax out the sheets. I have a
large volume of faxes each month and would like to be able to fax from my
computer. The big thing for me is to be able to merge a fax program with the
excel document so the info is just inserted. Anyone know how to accomplish
this?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks |

I guess my omisison of the fax program comes from my lack of knowledge of
this subject. Which I also failed to mention. I guess my question should
have read:
"Can I fax through the fax console in XP? Can I merge it with an excel
document?
If I can't fax through XP can anyone suggest a fax program? Does anyone
know how to accomplish this? Including do I need an independant fax program.
Thanks
