inexpensive commercial applications: Snappy Fax http://www.snappysoftware//snappyFax RKSFax http://www.rkssoftware.com/rksfax/overview.html Hal -- Hal Hostetler, CPBE -- Senior Engineer/MIS -- MS MVP-Print/Imaging -- WA7BGX http://www.kvoa.com -- "When News breaks, we fix it!"

Snappy won't load the cover sheet templates. Got any other suggestions? Joyce |

The only "free" software I know about is the free version from BVRP:
http://www.usr.com/bvrp/bvrp.asp This comes bundled with USR modems, I do not know if it will work with other brands or not. As to the other two and 64 bit, that's an unknown and I'd bet both RKS and Snappy would either have words on it somewhere, or would be interested in discussing it with you.

I can not believe that vista home p. is faxless. I have been spending days
trying to send a fax. I show that I have a fax and that it is ready and running properly yet it is not there in all reality. What is going on? I am so totaly frustrated. I think we should all send in letters to Microsoft Corp. and see if they wont make a free download available. vrbh "jag" wrote: Vista Home Edition does not come with software for faxing?

Well, believe it. The Home versions do not have Fax & scan.
Fax: Some have recommended a free alternative... http://www.usr.com/bvrp/bvrp.asp Version 9.03 Or for $30 (30 day free trial) http://www.snappysoftware.com/ Scan: I purchased VueScan ($40) for my scanning needs. http://www.hamrick.com/ -- Vista Home Premium 32 SP1 http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "vrbh" wrote in message ...
