How can I send a fax via my modem in Vista Home Premium (Office 20

Do you have a Fax printer listed in your printer folder? Is your phone hooked up
to your fax modem? If your phone is hooked up, when you are ready to fax, select
the printer and follow the steps.

1st. You should include the question in the space for detailed information
not just in the subject line.

2. Windows Vista Home, neither version, includes the Fax program like
Windows XP did. You need the Business versions for Fax. Now, your
fax/modem may have come with a fax program, if not Google for a decent
version.

Mary - See

about 10th item down in the check list of included items. You will see that
Fax is not included in the version of Vista the OP stated. Then if you
follow the link it provides under the "Scan, fax, and receive documents and
images with Windows Fax and Scan"
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/fax-scan.aspx you
will see that it is only supported in the Business versions of Windows
Vista. Apparently MS decided not to include the native capability in Vista
for the home user like they did in XP (another reason I don't like Vista.)

This is one that I carefully checked out when I tried to fax from within
Vista Home Premium right after receiving my new laptop.
