01 The first default file in the File List on the Options screen. The full file path should be given. This file may
be removed from the list by highlighting it and clicking on the Remove button 02 As above, but defines the
second default file. Up to 10 file names may be defined this way.

6.6 Making Things Easier

Sending a single fax is easy enough to do, but if you send faxes frequently, you may be interested in ways to
speed up your work and make the job easier. Here are some of the things you can do.

6.6.1 Saving Fax Num bers

See above, under the heading The Lookup Screen.

6.6.2 Look ing Up a Saved Fax Num ber

From the Destination screen click on the Lookup... button, scroll until you find the entry you are looking for,
click on the entry to highlight it and then click on the Next> button.

6.6.3 Set t ing Up a Default Rec ipient

If you frequently send a fax to the same person, you may want that person's name and fax number to show
automatically in the Destination screen whenever you run the CompuFax PC Interface. To do this, first make
sure the file CFLOOKUP.DAT exists. If the Lookup screen shows more than one entry, it exists. If it does
not exist, clicking on the Add to List button from the Destination screen will create it. Now edit the
CFLOOKUP.DAT file entry that starts with 000= . For example, if you want to make a default entry for Joe
Doakes at Widget Works, phone number 1(727)444-1212, edit the line as follows:

000= Joe Doakes;Widget Works;1(727)444-1212

(Notice the required semicolons separating the fields.) Save your changes. Next time you start the CompuFax
PC Interface program, Joe's information will show on the Destination screen. You can of course edit these
fields or use a lookup entry instead, but if you want to change the default, you have to go back and edit
CFLOOKUP.DAT again.

6.6.4 Adding, Changing or Delet ing a Look up Ent ry

See above, under the heading The Lookup Screen.

6.6.5 Sending The Sam e Fax t o Mult iple Dest inat ions

See above, under the heading The Lookup Screen, subsection Broadcasting.

6.6.6 Sending Rout ine Fax es

If you frequently send the same or similar fax, as in routine reports, you may benefit by re-using the Note and
Subject (see above, under the heading The Coversheet Information Screen. Or, you may wish to set up
default Fax Attachment file names (see above, under the heading Setup, subheading [Files].)
