I have a VFP application which links with the fax service
using the COM object contained in fxscom.dll.

A VFP report is directed to a tiff printer driver which
creates a tiff file, and this file is then submitted to
the fax service.

This works fine on my system, but fails on some client
computers with an OLE "Data is invalid " error even where
the version and build number are identical.

Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Are the clients (i presume windows xp) using a shared fax printer on Windows
Server 2003? If yes, then please make sure that Windows XP sp1 is installed
on the client. Also make sure that you have added the shared fax printer on
all the clients and you can manually send faxes using the shared fax
printer.
