well, I am not quite sure if I fully understand what you mean. Of course it is
not too difficult to change the current printer for the fax, which is also some
kind of a printer. but since I am a very lazy person, I spend hours & hours in
writing a macro that does this for me with just one keystroke... In fact I just
am trying to understand how XPL and the Windows menu work together. Untill now,
I think they do not. Thenx, c u around
