Hi Alex; I can not remember what it is called, but on a computer, you can create a command or just a string of letters and it will write your whole sequence. Do you think there is any chance this could be done on a BN? You could have a command not used by the BN and it might write your whole closing for your e-mails. I might be able to write terryp and get my whole closing, since terryp is not a word, but my first name and the first letter of my last name. Just a thought.

What I am trying to do is, essentially, have a few default values to choose from. There are only seven or eight subjects I would ever use in this one database, so can I just make a list of defaults and pick one? From what I have read, it seems as if that is currently not possible. I was hoping it was, however, as I have found many things either not mentioned in the manual, or suggested that would not work, actually do work if you can find an alternative way of doing them.
