[AccessD] Fax: code or fax app UI

I'm not that familiar with winfax anymore but 4 years ago I could import
txt or DBF files into winfax.
So you could save your excel file as a dbf or so...
Maybe a recent version already accepts Excel...

Subject: [AccessD] Fax: code or fax app UI

I have a marketing manager who needs to send a broadcast fax to 200
locations.  He has all the names and fax numbers in an Excel sheet.  I
know I can automate Winfax (which we don't have a copy of at this time
but can/will get if need be) and then I can read the names and numbers
in via VBA code and send the 200 faxes.  What I'm wondering though
before we go to work is is there a way to feed a fax app the Excel sheet
as the address list?  In other words is there a fax app (doesn't need to
be Winfax) that will accept a file as the address list?  I'm trying to
avoid coding if possible (at least for the time being).

Also, our network guys are hard at work install an app called Faxpress
that allows desktop receipt/sending of faxes.  Does anyone here have any
experience with this product?

TIA,
