You have got to be kidding. I have vista home premium but I still need to
send and receive faxes!!!! I had this capability with XP, and I am very upset
that it is not available with Vista which I just installed yesterday Feb 3.
Does Microsoft believe that home users never receive or send faxes? What are
my options? How am I to view the faxes I have saved in my documents? I
urgently need to have this capability on my computer and I am sure I am not
alone in this need.

It's doubtful, Microsoft, as far as i know, haven't supplied the fax
software as a separate item for other versions of Windows operating systems.

You may have to look at third party fax applications for this one.
Alternatively you would have to look to buying Vista Business or Ultimate
instead of Premium.

Thanks John. Do you suppose it might be available as a separate download
sometime for the other versions of Vista?

Fax facility is only available in Vista Business, Enterprise and
Ultimate.

Word 2007 provides plenty of fax cover templates but still relies, as far
as i know, on the fax software of Vista Business, Enterprise and
Ultimate. It doesn't contain a fax application on its own.

Will some form of FAXing and scanning be available in the Home Premium
edition or only in the business edition.

I have need for both of these features but do not want the business
edition.

Maybe they are available in the Office 2007 standard suite?

Thanks in advance. Bob.
