WinFax 10.02 SDK and Access 2K

[Robert Neville]

I create an Access Fax module a couple years back utilizing Access 97
and WinFax 8.0x. The module worked great until WinFax Pro 10.02 and
Window XP came along. Now, the module has been broken for some time.
I have decided to research the issue in an effort to find a solution.

Apparently, I read numerous postings that Winfax 10.02 does play nice
with Windows XP. Yet nobody has pin pointed how to resolve the
situation. Initially, I found a workaround by not using WinFax. Today,
I aim to not use this workaround; and use WinFax 10.02 on XP.

Symantec has provided no support on this issue. I have followed their
documentation and the module still generates errors. In fact, their
SDKSend.exe generates this error, which is similar to my application's
error.


Run-time error '-2147417851 (80010105)':
Automation error

Ok, I have isolated the first symptom to the cover page collection.

The Cover page and Attachment generate this error. Through reverse
deduction I concluded the issue may relate SDKSend object. The SDKSend
automation object has trouble initializing . Here's the line of code
used.

Set objSendWinFax = CreateObject("WinFax.SDKSend")
Set objSendWinFax = CreateObject("WinFax.SDKSend8.0")

Set objPages = CreateObject("WinFax.CoverPages")
Set objAttachs = CreateObject("WinFax.Attachments")

Do I use something like this statement to declare the SDK object?

Dim objSendWinFax As New wfxctl32.CSDKSend
Or
Dim objSendWinFax As Object

Let me know if anybody could shed light on this issue. By the way
WinFax finally work on my XP test machine. Now, I just have to resolve
this SDK issue.
