Re: AB Macro usage examples
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hi Januk, I know this is against the rules somewhat, and i hope you all apologize but i just have to say thanks a lot Januk for your very good description of the new AB macros. This made things a whole lot clearer for me, as i could understand the syntax to use. I can see the greatness of things now.:-) The best email program just got a lot better!

Default value for %AB macros (was: AB Macro usage examples)
Hello, JA %TO=""%TO='"%ABofromNAME" %ABofromEMAIL' /.../ JA Hi %ABofromNAMEPREFIX%ABofromLASTNAME afaics the %AB macros are returning empty strings, if there is no addressbook entry defined. Right? It would be useful to have a defined default for this case, for example: Hi %ABofromFIRSTNAME[%OFROMFNAME]%ABofromLASTNAME[%OFROMLNAME] The part in the brackets would only be expanded, if the part left of the brackets returns an empty string... . Just an idea.

Re: beta/8
Hello Maxim, Monday, November 20, 2000, you wrote to me: MM [-] Fixed a bug of Beta/6-Beta/7 with prompting POP password This works in a really strange way. I deleted password in account properties and got a window with login/password fields and update account's data checkbox. I fill out the password field and didn't check the box. TB checked the mail normally but after that I couldn't check the mail: there was no pop-up window and I got password error. The other part of it is a very old bug: although I can change the login name in the pop-up window, TB uses the name from the account properties instead and I got a password error. -- Best regards, Peter Gannushkin e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.downtownmusic.net/ -- -- View the TBBETA archive at http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBBETA, double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
Re: Default value for %AB macros (was: AB Macro usage examples)
Hello Peter, On Mon, 20 Nov 2000 at 20:00:42 GMT +0100 (which was 11:00 AM where I live) witnesses say Peter Hampf typed: Hello, JA %TO=""%TO='"%ABofromNAME" %ABofromEMAIL' /.../ JA Hi %ABofromNAMEPREFIX%ABofromLASTNAME afaics the %AB macros are returning empty strings, if there is no addressbook entry defined. Right? That's correct. I think this is good behaviour in most cases. However, you point out: It would be useful to have a defined default for this case, for example: Hi %ABofromFIRSTNAME[%OFROMFNAME]%ABofromLASTNAME[%OFROMLNAME] The part in the brackets would only be expanded, if the part left of the brackets returns an empty string... . That would be nice. The way you've suggested implies that the part in brackets should be user definable, right? If so, I agree. There are times when a null string makes more sense than anything else (eg. Name Prefix or Memos, etc). But the option would be very useful. As it is right now, the %AB macros are only really useful in Address Book templates, with any generality. Your suggestion would make these macros much more general, and useful in all the multitude of other templates. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal See header for e-mail address Using The Bat! 1.48 Beta/7 under Windows 98 4.10 Build A -- -- View the TBBETA archive at http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBBETA, double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
