Re[2]: Address Book Question

Open Address book, go to |View| |Sort by| choose |Last name| Mike But when I send an email, I'd like the To: line to show the first Mike name before the last name and then the email address. In properties choose: |Display Name as | First, Middle, Last. It's true that with your method sorting in the address book is done by last name, but the names are still shown in the address book with first name first. I can live with this if necessary, but ideally--and I suggest this for some later update if it's not available now--I'd like to have the option of having the address book show the last name first while the email shows the first name first.

Hi Marck, Monday, February 17, 2003, 9:54:35 PM, you wrote: The %ToFname relates to the First Name in the To header of the message in question (the current message or reply). You need to look at some of the other macros - specifically the Address book macros. The %ABTO macro, followed by one of: Namethe full name FirstName the first name LastNamethe last name MiddleName the middle name Handle the handle .. will help a lot. These can be defaulted to make a more generic template entry by doing something like this: %ABToFirstName='%TOFname' This says get the first name from the address book but use the first name from the To field if none is available. Thanks! That worked great! -- Best regards, Kim Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Nick, Wednesday, November 22, 2000, 10:56:01 PM, you wrote: QS That meaning of that statement, "Hide items if not specifically QS selected," is inpenetrable for me... NA I have to agree with you... the statement is very misleading and difficult NA to comprehend. However, what they are saying is that if you check that box NA at the Group level, then those addresses in that Group will *not* appear at NA the Root Level. So, if you have all your addresses in, say 4 Groups, and you NA check the box in each Group, the Root level will be empty. NA As you uncheck each box, the addresses in that group will then show at the NA Root level. Thanks, Nick for the explanation; I understand it now. Trouble is I'm afraid every time I look at "Hide items if not specifically selected," I'll go blank again ;-) Best regards, Quinmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "Perseverence is not a long race; it is many short races one after another." - Walter Elliott --- Using The Bat! 1.48 Beta/6 under Windows 95 4.0 Build 950 on a Pentium 133 with 88MB RAM. -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Hello Marck, Saturday, November 11, 2000, 6:41:49 PM, you wrote: JS I have a problem with the address book. When I have some addresses in JS the "root" of my address book, but when I MOVE them to a sub-group JS they are still listed in the root. If I delete the root entry all JS entries disappear! MDP Each group has the option "Hide items if not specifically selected". MDP If this is not checked then all items within the group will remain at MDP the root level. That meaning of that statement, "Hide items if not specifically selected," is inpenetrable for me. What 'items' does it refer to and is it the _items_ that are not specifically selected or is it the checkbox that is specifically selected? And what does 'hide' mean here? What is hidden and why? I'm sorry, I've tried to understand what it means (I've checked the archives but no help) but I remain totally confused. Can you help? Thanks.
