IFaxServer::put_RetryDelay

The IFaxServer::put_RetryDelay method changes the RetryDelay property for a FaxServer object. The RetryDelay property is a value that represents the time interval that the fax service waits before attempting to retransmit an outbound fax job.

Visual Basic Reference

HRESULT put_RetryDelay(
  LONG newVal  // new value for minutes between attempts
);

Parameters

newVal
[in] Specifies the new value, in minutes, to assign to the RetryDelay property. Set the property value equal to zero to indicate that the fax server should attempt to retransmit the fax job immediately.

Return Values

Returns an HRESULT value indicating success or failure. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns a COM-defined error code.

You should not check directly for success or failure. Use the COM SUCCEEDED and FAILED macros instead.

Remarks

A transmission might not be sent on the first attempt for various reasons. For example, the sending device may receive a busy signal.

Requirements

  Windows NT/2000: Requires Windows 2000.
  Windows 95/98: Unsupported.
  Header: Declared in faxcom.h.
  Import Library: Included as a resource in faxcom.dll.
