I've written an application for one of my clients and his IT guy has asked me to automate faxing by using the ZETAFAX application.
This is a copy of the e-mail he has sent me but I don't have a clue what he is on about!
*******************************************
Please find below the coding you will need to include in your reports to automate faxing.
%%[TO: faxnumber, recipient name, recipient organisation]
%%[SEND]
So, to send to NRF's own fax you would put
%%[TO: 810101, John, NRF]
%%[SEND]
If you miss out the %%[SEND] command then the dialog will be shown pre-populated. Including the SEND command will immediately send the fax with no dialog being shown.
Zetafax will remove the codes from faxes and therefore it is not required that the command text be in white, but it is probably better to do so since you might want to print the same report to a normal printer.
Regards
Simon Barnett

You may be wondering why I don't just ask him outright - unfortunately he is one of those people who scoffs at you if you don't know the answer to something - please help me out so I can get one up on him!!!
Thanks
Andy
