Send and receive Fax with Windows Fax


Windows 7 has built in Fax Application. Would it be possible to connect to this and send fax over Windows Fax (put a outgoing Fax in the Outgoing Folder) and read all received Faxes? I have to use C# to do this. When it is possible, are there any samples which are showing this?


Solution

  • You can use fxscom.dll in from WINDOWS\system32 directory.

    if it is not there you will need to install fax services from windows components

    Here is an example how to use that library Faxing with C#

    Because it is a COM object you will find reference to it under COM Tab. After you add reference to it you should have reference to FAXCOMLib library.
