From: Kael Oosthuizen To: All Thread: WinFossil (1/5) Date: 30-Aug-97, 2:02pm (Ref# 5667) HIya I was wondering if any other Sysops have had problems using WinFossil with BGFAX? I've been trying to run it in rear-end mode (running from FrontDoor), and have notived that often a fax will be detected, however no transmission will be detected. Other times its fine. Any suggestions, is it WinfoSsil? L8r Kael --- Ezycom V1.48g0 01fa0186 * Origin: Eternal BBS +61-3-9876-5783! 2.9Gigz! 2 CDROMS (3:633/110)

I would have to see some clips from your BGFAX.LOG file. Also, what kind of modem are you using? Regards, bgfax author

IF !%BGFAX%! == !! SET BGFAX=C:\BGFAX If you set BGFAX=, then use it, otherwise there's no point.

When a batch file tests for an errorlevel it does so from the top down. In other words it checks to see if errorlevel 255 satisfies the statement before checking to see if errorlevel 254 satisfies it...and so on. If you use the example 'IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO LABEL' and the actual errorlevel returned is 5 or greater it will still match that line since it checks for a match as 'LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO.' On the other hand, if the actual errorlevel returned was 3 or less there would not be a match. In your batch file example above you use 'IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 4...' which says 'if the errorlevel is NOT less than or equal to...' so any errorlevel ABOVE 4 will match that line and any errorlevel below 4 will not. Now, if you want to ONLY handle a 'NOT EQUAL 4' situation without the 'LESS THAN...' match, try something like this: WNFOSCTL 1 UNLOCK CD \BGFAX BGFAX.EXE /FAX C:\BGFAX F2 F IF ERRORLEVEL 4 IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO FAX GOTO START :FAX WNFOSCTL 1 LOCK 115200 CD\EZY-BBS EZYUTIL -IMPORT -A1 -FBGFAX -TDavid_Easton -SNew_Fax -L%ezy%\TXT\fax.asc TYPE C:\BGFAX\BGFAX.LOG >> C:\EZY-BBS\EZY1.LOG DEL C:\BGFAX\BGFAX.LOG :START ...
