I see what you are saying. However, that is not what i'm trying to do. I
don't want to fax something from my computer - i just want to create a fax
coversheet from the contact information in outlook. I'm a mortgage broker,
and I fax things all day long, to different people. Since the information
I'm needing to fax was received via fax, or is a document that was signed in
the office. So, i have to print a fax coversheet, type some notes on it, and
go to the fax machine in the next room and fax it, along with the other
documents i've gathered. Make sense? So, all i want to do is create a fax
coversheet

would love to be able to do is RIGHT CLICK on the contact, and, in the same
way you can send a new email message, create a word document based on an
existing template. Make sense? With the interoperability of the office
suite, this doesn't seem like much of a stretch

Thanks though!

It makes sense if you have a fax client that actually functions well.
Microsoft never got their fax software to work properly and has dropped
support of that medium. Outlook used to attempt to start fax sequences from
fax numbers, but it generally was viewed by Outlook experts as being a very
medieval form of torture. With good reason, the communications world has
moved on from fax, and you really need to find some legacy, non-microsoft fax
client that will at least get something sent out.
