Default Programmatic Fax Problem

I'll certainly do that, just hoping an outlook guru might have some
insight others might not. Faxcomex is used by outlook in xp and later.

I've been developing a asp.net site that sends a fax generated by a
script. I use the faxcomex object to send the fax.

I create an html file and save it with a .doc extension attatch it to
the body when I call the script. When the script is executed word
launches and prints to the fax-modem and it's on it's way. This works
with other applications that support the print verb command.

One problem is when I copy the files to my test IIS from the debug IIS.

the page just hangs.

here is my fax function:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------**----------------

Dim faxServer As New Object
Dim faxDocument As New Object

faxServer = CreateObject("FAXCOMEX.FaxServer")
faxDocument = CreateObject("FAXCOMEX.Faxdocument")
faxServer.connect("")
faxDocument.body = "c:\temp_proposal.doc"
faxDocument.documentname = "Proposal"
faxDocument.Recipients.Add(faxnum)
Dim JobID = faxDocument.ConnectedSubmit(faxServer)
faxServer = Nothing
faxDocument = Nothing
---------------------------------------------------------------------------**----------------

I suspect it may be a permissions problem but I gave asp.net and IUSR
administrative access to see if that resolved it and nothing.

Additionaly, I plan to put this on my windows 2003 server which doesn't

have word or other applications to launch to execute the print, I
wouldn't those aps constantly launching anyway.
Any suggestions for either problem would be greatly appreciated.
