To clarify a bit further. The suffix data field in the contact record is labeled suffix or title depending on which dialog box is open. This is very confusing especially as the suffix field is generally part of the name, and may contain such information as Junior, Senior, etc. in addition to the educational achievement notations above (in which you have failed to include P.E. for professional engineers). As title is used exclusively for honorific titles - Mr., Ms., san, sama, etc. in Entourage 2001, this could cause a problem when dealing with contacts created at different times. (Note that since I generally know by the setting of the Japanese contact flag, it is easy for me to correctly place the honorific when designing the form letter.) However, if sometimes the honorific is in the title field and sometimes it is in the suffix field, I have to manual inspect and correct each letter before it is sent. -- Eric Hildum -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
