Insert Template Just before send message
Using The Bat! v1.62i on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 3 Hi everyone, I've got the question about template inserting. When I create a new message, or make Reply, text in the relevant template apperars before I'm starting to write my message. Is there a way to insert the template text after writing, just begore sending the message. Thanks in advance. -- Regards Nikolay Cankoff Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Okay, I don't think that can be done automatically, but with a QT you can get something like you'd like to achieve. Create a QT and call it bye. I made an example that's used to sign this message: ,- [ ] | %Issignature | Greetings, Roelof | This message was finished at %time `- The %issignature macro is used to place the QT at the very bottom of the message or when there's already a signature delimiter (dash, dash, space, enter) present at that place. You can call a QT by typing it's name followed by Ctrl+space For this message I used two QT's, one to insert the time when I started my message, that gave the 14:08 at the top of my message and for the signature below I used the QT that I quoted two paragraphs up. I suppose I'll delete them both after sending this message. ;-) The reason I suggested 'bye' as name for the QT is that that's something that's easy to remember and that come naturally to type under a message. It also makes it convenient to use different QT's for the different languages your corresponding in. It would also be a convenient place to automatically mention any attachments using the %Attachments macro. -- Greetings, Roelof This message was finished at 14:29 Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Are you on the PowerPro mailing list? A lot of the traffic is far above and beyond what I've even dreamt of doing with PP. But you could probably get some really good ideas of PP's use by just mailing the PP list and asking for some examples of how people use PP. I have tons of keyboard/mouse macros and custom menus. I would have a tough time giving up PP if I ever had to, and I've barely scratched the surface of it's capabilities. Mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe, if you're interested. Or join TBOT [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask other TB users how they use PP. I know I've seen several TB users that also use PP. -- Dave Using The Bat! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Bat folder size question
Hello Lukas, I actually started using TB myself because Outlook Express started behaving increasingly strangely as I accumulated larger amounts of e-mail (300MB, 20,000 messages).

Cleaning up duplicates in address book
I've searched around in the Bat! help file, and can't find what I'm looking for. I have many duplicate entries in my address book (duplicate in terms of same name, same e-mail address, but somehow, over time, they've ended up affiliated with different groups). Can I take all those duplicates and merge them? For example, if John Smith js @ something dot com) has one entry affiliated with the group millionaires and another entry affiliated with the with the group clients, can I get the Bat! to merge them together so John Smith has only one entry, affiliated with both millionaires and clients? I've managed to jam up a hundred or more of these duplicates, and sure would like to get rid of 'em. Of course, in terms of functionality this doesn't matter, but aesthetically, I'd be more pleased. :-) Thanks! -- David Written Wednesday, April 02, 2003 at 10:23:19 PM I'm proud to pay taxes in the United States; the only thing is, I could be just as proud for half the money.
