Hi group!

Is anyone out there faxing their POs directly from the system?  We use
Cornerstone Communication's Unifier as our fax server (have been since
the early 90's), and want to (finally!) begin faxing POs directly rather
than printing them and manually faxing them.  (Our old Purchasing
Manager that resisted all this "new stuff" has retired, now we can join
the 21st
century.)

However, I need to allow our buyers to select print, fax, or e-mail
(Unifier supports all 3) from the Browser Host Print or green screen.
There is only one option available to me that I can see, print.  That
means I have to use the CAS Report Overrides to control printing.
That's insufficient - I don't want an "all or nothing" approach.

How have you good folk handled this?  Just hoping to get a couple
options before I start reinventing the wheel.  I figure Eric (among
others) has been down this road before.....
