I am trying to send a table from Excel within the body of an Outlook
(lastest versions) to be sent as a fax. Am able to do this, BUT when
the document prints out on the fax machine the formating is off (too
big for the sheet). I am flexible on changing the method I send it to
the fax machine, however it must be sent to the fax via macro. Below
is the code I am using.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The only thing I can think of here is to reduce everything in Excel before
you save it as html. I don't know how complicated the format of your sheet
is, but I was thinking something like this

Activesheet.UsedRange.Cells.Font.Size =
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Cells.Font.Size - 2

Then maybe loop through the columns in the usedrange and reduce the column
widths by a certain amount.

It's not foolproof, but it may work for you.
