How to programmatically send fax for Oracle reports?

[liang gu]

I would like to write a program to automatically send fax for Oracle reports? Help needed! Thanks.

So would we.
Unfortunately there isn't an answer.
Now, we have Faxpress, and they do have a .exe that you can call directly, but you have to pass the filename to fax, phone number, and other information. This is one possibility.
There is also Fax software that Oracle supports that might help in sending the automatically.
We have been waiting for a real solution for almost a year now, and still haven't found a really good one.

Pradeep,
Unfortunately their answers in that thread has links to a page that no longer exists on Oracle's OTN web site.
Looked very intersting though, and maybe there is something else on Oracle's site that took over the previous web page.
So I guess I will do a search to try and find it.

Try this
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/pluginxchange/content.html
The error was because some HTML tag was used to display the URL
