Using Word and Access 2000, Outlook 98 on a Win 98 SE
machine.
Access generates a report and outputs it as a Word file.
Through automation, it generates a new Outlook mail
message, attaches the file, and faxes it using MS Fax.
Once Windows Messaging takes over to send the fax, it
automatically launches Word to render the attachment file
into a faxable format.
Upon attempting to render the file in Word, it halts with
an error: Ambiguous file name: tmpdde, and the file won't
fax and the process hangs.
