How can i setup my users to be able to fax documents from their PC. I want to
avoide the downtime of going to the fax machine and manually entering the fax
number to send. there must be a way to fax from inside outlook.

Outlook 2003 will integrate with any of the current Windows fax clients.
Which are you using?

Russ, I want to use the fax function that is built into Outlook 2003 and SBS
2003. I thought you could fax directly from outlook...

Outlook has no built in fax. SBS's client fax module can integrate with
Outlook.
