Longer Description:
--------------------------
MergeFax 1.0 is an add-on program that allows you to mail-merge
group fax hundreds of PERSONALIZED faxes with Word for Windows 6.0
and WinFax PRO 3.0 (and WinFax PRO for Networks)--all with one
simple keystroke.
MergeFax is one of those rare programs that will save you and your
employees hours of time. Plus, the date and time scheduling features
alone will save you big bucks by allowing you to schedule your faxes
late at night when the rates are dirt cheap.
Before the creation of MergeFax, the best you could do was "group
fax" the same document to everyone. Ex: "Dear Customer, thank you for
your interest in Ski Chalet products."
The power of MergeFax is that it allows you to use Word for Windows
6.0's awesome mail-merge features to group fax PERSONALIZED faxes to
each individual. Ex: "Dear Jim, thank you for your interest in our
winter ski product line." "Dear Joe, thank you for your interest in
our arrow ski downhill racers." Etc.
MergeFax-ing is as simple as these 2 steps:
1. Set up your mail-merge main document.
2. Hit Alt-M and START.
HereÆs how it works:
1) MergeFax automatically merges each data record, scans the document
to find the recipientÆs name and fax number, and then (using DDE) passes
this information over to WinFax PRO.
2) MergeFax queues up all the faxes in WinFax PRO's event list--either
to be sent immediately or scheduled for a later date and time.
3) MergeFax automatically sets the fax driver and resets the printer
driver for you--so you donÆt have to fiddle with driver settings. You
just hit Alt-M and Start, and MergeFax takes care of everything else.
4) MergeFax does all this in minutes! On a 486-66 machine, MergeFax
queues up WinFax PRO's event list with 100 faxes in 5 minutes!
