Address AutoComplete
Hello TB! Users, Is there a way to turn off Address Autocomplete of the To: field? The risk of errors is quite high, particularly since the method of selecting the desired entry from the list (down arrow and then Enter) is different from that of most other autocomplete lists (down arrow and tab). -- Julian Using The Bat! v4.2.6 on Windows Vista 6.0 Build 6001 Service Pack 1 Current version is 4.2.9.1 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Thank you, just what I was looking for. Rather than make the address picking process completely manual (which means opening the Addressbook and selecting the contact), I have settled for displaying a list of suggestions from the default account addressbook without autocompleting. It is the autocomplete that trips me up! For down-arrow, tab, I was thinking of the autocomplete in browser (Firefox) fields, where you can select the entry by using the down arrow to select the entry you want and using TAB to fill the field with it.

Address Autocomplete List - Parked entries - How do I remove?
Hi There are several parked entries at the bottom of my Address Autocomplete List in a new blank message in one of my accounts. These are marked with the same parked symbol as identifies parked messages. I cannot remember doing anything to create these parked entries and can't work out how to edit or delete them. There are 13 of these parked entries and only 3 contain current addresses. They only feature in one account. I would appreciate help with this, as some of the parked entries contain obsolete addresses for current contacts and a couple are deceased. -- Best regards, MFPA My mind works like lightning... one brilliant flash and it's gone Using The Bat! v4.0.38 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Current version is 4.0.38.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Address AutoComplete Option Location
Hello TB! Users, Can anyone tell me where the Address AutoComplete option for the Message Window now hides. It used to appear under Options|Preferences|System, but it does not any longer. The latest version appears to have reset my original settings (Addressboook only) and I want to set it back. On the subject of this, the Autocomplete drop down list does not seem to work very intuitively. In most applications I can select the item I want by using the down arrow key to select the item I want and then use [TAB] to select it. In TB! this moves onto the next field (CC: in my case) without selecting the highlighted field. This has resulted in a few emails that have gone to the wrong person recently. Is just me, or do others feel that the process if selecting items does not follow Windows conventions? -- Julian Using The Bat! v3.65.03 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.65.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Mother of all common folders Autocomplete cycler wanted
Hi all, What determines the 'mother account' of a common folder ? I've got 4 or 5 accounts and I've noticed that one specific account is used for sending messages from common folders. Consequently messages sent from such folders end up in the sent folder of an account which used to be my main account, but today is a minor account that I hope to stop using at some point. Is there a way to control this behaviour ? Another thing I've wondered about is whether the autocomplete results of the address field can be cycled somehow? You know, when I write the beginning of an address and autocomplete kicks in, often it picks one of several addresses beginning with that string - and often not the one I am looking for :) So far I've just had to keep on filling in the address until the string becomes unique. But I really like autocomplete and I miss a way to cycle through the results of autocomplete.

MW Could it be 'This account is the default for mailto:; URLs' in account MW properties? I didn't even remember this setting. Actually, none of my accounts were checked to be default for mailtos. However, after setting this preference it works like I asked: mail from common folders are now sent via my chosen account.

Addressing/autocomplete wish wrapped to next line
On the topic of auto-complete one other thing I find a bit of a nuisance. I love being able to start out addressing the to field by starting to type the name and then using CTRL-+ to autocomplete. The problem is as I start to get near the end of the line you can't really see what you are autocompleting as it is hidden off the address field. So I then have to open up the address book icon and make sure I picked the right one and if I didn't I have to go grab the correct one from the address book. It would be nice if I could just keep adding and autocompleting addresses on the TO line without having to physically go up to the line and hit end and make sure I picked the correct one. If it just wrapped onto a new line it would be perfect. Has anyone else run into this issue? or is it just me? Maybe everyone else completes their to field in a quicker way.

Re: Autocomplete
Hello Ray, On Tuesday, May 28, 2002 at 12:36:35 +0100, you wrote concerning 'Autocomplete': ... Is there a setting I should make somewhere so that autocomplete recognises text and always fills it in? I have no problem with autocompleting multiple addresses. I just type the first name and when it autocompletes the first address I hit 'End' and ';' and type the second address. But I think I know what your problem is. When the TO: line in the editor is full and you add another address you can't see that it is autocompleting because it's jumping back to the beginning of the TO: line. So you can't see it's autocompleting but it is. I think it would be better if TB! wouldn't jump back to the beginning of the line all the time. There is another way of adding a bunch of recipients with a few mouse clicks though. When you are in the editor hit the icon far right in the TO: line. A new window opens and you can add addresses from your addressbook. -- Best regards, David ** Kids-They're not sleeping, they're recharging! ** [TB! 1.60m] [Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2] [Running on a Celeron 800@1176 256 Mb RAM] Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com

Autocomplete
When I write several emails to the same person and fill in the To: field, it only autocompletes once. The third email I have to fill in completely and the fourth autocompletes etc. Is there a setting I should make somewhere so that autocomplete recognises text and always fills it in? In case you wonder why I am filling in several emails to the same address, it's because I was sending myself test emails from different accounts using Autoroute. Autoroute btw seems to work well and I can now send from all accounts when dialled up to one. Thanks to all who responded to that thread.

Clive, I should not have made that remark here, it to of topic and probably scares a lot of people using dell machine :-) Minimal service requests is exactly what it says, make sure owners do not call the service desk or make service requests and when they do reduce the time spent to the minimum. Things that they do - Use special function reduced hardware (because it reduces cost) - Use a driver because they know that one works, not the latest / fastest. - Restore tools that reset the whole machine to factory setting (sorry for the missing data) - Use design for assembly technics that unfortunately reduce repairability / upgrade possibilities I will stop here before it gets to technical.

sub groups / distribution list autocomplete?
Is there a way to make subgroups under groups? The only way I see to set up a distribution list is to make a group and add contacts to that group. I'd like to have some of the distribution list groups be sub groups of certain categories. (ie- 'Football Group' as a subgroup under 'Friends' ). Also, is there anyway to get the ctrl+ feature to work when trying to autocomplete a group name? It only seems to work if I at least email the list one time so that it keeps it in the most recently used addresses memory.

Bat List, I'm still having some trouble that I really need some help with. First I ran into the problem when I tried to set up two email addresses such as John Doe(work) and John Doe(home). I wasn't able to use ctrl+ in order to get the autocomplete to work. When I removed the paranthesis it worked fine so that the two last names were Doe work and Doe home accordingly. Now I'm running into trouble again with a similar problem: I have two contact entries.. one is Tom Brown Sr. and one is Tom Brown Jr. How should I add these entries so that I can get the autocomplete feature (ctrl+) to work when I start typing Tom ctrl+ in the TO field? With either the Sr. or Jr. after the last name I can not get it to work? Am I doing something wrong or is there a simple work around? ...

I always wondered how to do that, but I don't have that big an address book (mostly I access LDAP) so it was never a major issue...
