I'm trying to use the MS Fax ActiveX library to send a fax with attachements. The FaxDocument object has a bodies property defined as a Variant (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... S.85).aspx) which a string containing the file names of the documents to attach. when I call the putBodies method generated by Jade, passing in a string, I get a 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG) "The parameter is incorrect" exception.

Has anyone encountered this before when using ActivX interfaces / controls and if so is there a solution?

Code: Select all

	<< SNIP >>

	create oFaxDocument transient;
	oFaxDocument.createAutomationObject();

	//Choose to attach the fax to the fax receipt
	oFaxDocument.attachFaxToReceipt := true;
	//Set the cover page type and the path to the cover page
	oFaxDocument.coverPageType := CSMicrosoft_Fax_Service_Extend.CSFcptSERVER;	// Server
	oFaxDocument.coverPage :=  app.getProfileString( app.getIniFileName, INISectionCELFaxSettings, INIKeyFaxCoverPage, DefaultCoverPage );	

	oFaxDocument.sender.officePhone := app.getProfileString( app.getIniFileName, INISectionCELFaxSettings, INIKeyFaxPhone, null );
	oFaxDocument.sender.faxNumber := app.getProfileString( app.getIniFileName, INISectionCELFaxSettings, INIKeyFaxNumber, null );
	oFaxDocument.sender.name := app.getProfileString( app.getIniFileName, INISectionCELFaxSettings, INIKeyFaxSenderName, null );
	
	//Set the fax priority
	oFaxDocument.priority := CSMicrosoft_Fax_Service_Extend.CSFarSUBMIT_NORMAL;
	//Set the receipt type to email
	oFaxDocument.receiptType := CSMicrosoft_Fax_Service_Extend.CSFrtNONE;	
	//Specify that the fax is to be sent at a particular time
	oFaxDocument.scheduleType := CSMicrosoft_Fax_Service_Extend.CSFstNOW; // now


	//Name the document
	oFaxDocument.documentName := self.class.name & ": Fax Report Output";

	//Set the fax body

	[i]oFaxDocument.putBodies( 'C:\temp\file1.pdf;C:\temp\file2.pdf' );[/i]	
	
	//Add the recipient with the fax number 
	oFaxDocument.celAddReceiptents( receipentsAddresses, receipentsNames );
	//Provide the cover page note
	oFaxDocument.note := message;
	oFaxDocument.subject := subject;
	
	oFaxDocument.connectedSubmit2( zMyFaxServer.getInterface( CSIFaxServer).CSIFaxServer, oOutgoingJobs);
