The answer is "it depends".

What kind of fax hardware do you have? Do you have a dedicated fax
board and plan to do many faxes? Or just a simple fax modem?

Some faxing software allow you to just drop a file into a certain
folder and it will just get picked up and faxed. Others may require
you to do all the coding.

I'd start by seeing what software is provided with the fax hardware
you intend to use and see if it contains an API that you can call.

I really belived that MS did not provide a fax utility anymore
starting of XP but i was wrong i just dicovered with all my home
computers it was just a mather of putting the original installation
disk in after selecting fax services and >>>> there it was a fax
that can be steered as if it is a printer

However i have not yet tested it with a app that generates the
pages to be send

Just do a google search for Windows Fax Service:

Are you doing high volume faxing? If you area, a fax blast service might be
a better choice. These services typically have a web service interface
making high volume faxing much more practical.

Well this proggy sends +- 10 faxes a day so no it`s not that high in volume
, i also don`t know if these services are interesting here in the
Netherlands ( and if they even exist for our country )
