Vista Fax and Scan doesn't see old faxes from XP Fax in Outbox

I just sent my first fax from Vista Fax and Scan. Then, after I created a
Parent Folder called Fax in Documents and after Fax and Scan created the sent
folder, I dropped in all 2,000 plus faxes into that same folder. I know that
I have the right folder because the first sent fax is there. However, I want
to be able to see these older faxes from XP in the Sent Folder in Fax and
Scan, but it is only seeing the first one. In XP, this was simple, I would
drop in the older faxes into the default send folder and as soon as I started
up Fax again, all the older faxes would show up with Subject, To, Created
date, Pages, etc... And this was all searchable.

When does Office get released for Linux? I'm pretty sick of Vista. What a
piece of junk.

As Mike told you, OpenOffice works great on Linux. I've used it for
years. If you really want to run MS Office on Linux that's no problem
either.

Yeah, I've used it. It's good. But, it's mail merge is very poor and it
doesn't have an Outlook type email client. Evolution and Kmail? don't cut
it. I need all the bells and whistles.

Maybe someday.

Re: Vista Fax and Scan doesn't see old faxes from XP Fax in Outbox

I completely missed your comment on Codeweavers. Last I'd heard it only
worked with Office 2000. I just checked it out and found that it does work
with 2003. Is this an emulator? Would it be like running Windows in Apple,
slow?
