Hello Bodemann, A reminder of what Bodemann Joern typed on: Wednesday, August 24, 2005 at 14:27:04 GMT +0200 BJ is there any file I can delete to stop The Bat! from crashing at startup? I BJ am using BIN_FILE_VERSION=5.1.2600.2180. I use IMAP. I have noticed that it could be just one file in your mail base. You can try renaming your Mail folder then starting TB to see if this solves it. If it does name it Mail again and then rename each account until you find the one causing the problem. If you then find the problem account it is likely one of the config files in this account causing the problem. Renaming these one at a time may track down the culprit. -- Best regards, Stuartmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v3.60.02 Forerunner (Beta) Bayes Filter Plugin v2.0.3 On Windows XP 5.1 Build #2600 Current version is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Is there a VAT field in The Bat! v3.5 Addressbook
Hello wonderful tbudl@thebat.dutaint.com, A little wicked: A small question: Is there a VAT field in The Bat! v3.5 Addressbook or have the citizens of the Black Sea Republic Moldova still not recogniced the impractical absence of addressbooks for business verion software without VAT fields? The onest truth: As I'm in the start for puting up my own business I have come across the bysantian rule that I'm for the state not the othe way around therefore I'm looking for a more complete e-mail software. Im considering changing to a better and more complete software than the present The Bat! version 2.12 I'm using. OR is there a smart way to create new formfields in the addressbook? I've come to like The Bat! quite alot even though it doesn't use a database for saving information - which in my opinion would be the best choice -- kind regards, qe3ee mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --- E fructu arbor cognoscitur 16:04:00 den 24 augusti 2005 --- The Bat! v2.12.04 Windows XP.5.1.2600 if this mail has a virus please throw it away and notify me :) Current version is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

However I here give you and the group this message I wrote to Contact at The Bat homepage (I hope they will read it): -Begin Message to Contact- Hello Contact! I have written to tbudl@thebat.dutaint.com about the use for a VAT field in the bat addressbook. I got a suggestion how to solve this problem from Mark D. Pearlstone: Use some other unused formfield! I feel that this is highly inadequate for the professional/business version of the bat, as that makes it no more than a student toy than a real business software. If there was a way to create new forms in the addressbook it would be even nicer as it could be customizable for different purposes. Another drawback I have encountered is the lack of database driven e-mail archive. The huge amount of data that need to accessed to form various part of projects and similare communication intensive activities simply cannot be keept in a compressed filearchive without negative impact on the client performance, I've got right now 3rd quarter of 2005 I have 189000 messages since 1 jan 2005! A database had made the archiving and accessing of year old messages easier. Right now every year has to be unpacked and searched through when i want to access a single mail from a certain mailer/source. A database could be told to just open the mails in the bat up til a certain date as standard. The rest could be marked as archived, but still accessable if needed! Much more complicated programaticaly but not totaly unachivable! I have the urgent use for this improvement as I'm just in a startup process for a privat company. I'm not any more a private person as you may understand. I have kind of grown toghether with the bat and would not like to change it for some other client as i have come to like it to much.

Re: Is there a VAT field in The Bat! v3.5 Addressbook
qe3ee wrote: q A small question: Is there a VAT field in The Bat! v3.5 q Addressbook snip q OR is there a smart way to create new formfields in the addressbook? You could always use the address book memo field. If you need to access the value programmatically, the following QT might help. I *think* it uses a syntax available in v2, but I'm not 100% sure. This QT is a generalization of a technique I saw used by Robin Anson. It allows you to specify INI file like key/value pairs in the AB memo field. In your case, you might have a line like: VAT=yes It can occur anywhere in the field - I put them at the end. The QT to access it is as follows (call it ab_memo_item): %Rem( Usage: %QInclude(ab_memo_item,item_name,default_value))%- %- %SetPattRegExp((?im)^%_1\s*=\s*(.*?)\s*$)%- %RegExpBlindMatch(%ABToMemo)%- %_ABI_Value=%SubPatt(1)%- %If:%_ABI_Value%- :%_ABI_Value%- :%_2%- To get the value, you could use something like: %QInclude(ab_memo_item,VAT,) or %QInclude(ab_memo_item,VAT,no) As written, the QT uses the AB entry for the To field of new messages or replies. You might have to change the ABToMemo to something else to use it in another context. I use this technique to customize my signature for certain individuals. My Friends AB group message templates contain the line: %QInclude(%QInclude(ab_memo_item,sig,default_sig))%- I have a QT called default_sig that contains my normal signature. For any individual I want to use a different signature for, I include a line in the memo field of that person's AB entry that names a specific signature QT, such as: sig=tagline_sig I hope this makes sense. -- George Using The Bat! 3.60.02 Forerunner (Beta) on Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 2.
