Hmm, if I set the subject with a macro I can, as Roelof suggested, add to that subject by going to the body of the message, MAKING SOME CHANGE TO THE BODY, and then going back to the subject. If I try to add to the subject before getting to the body, or after tabbing to the body but not typing anything it, it reverts to the previous value as you suggested. -- Robin Anson Using The Bat! v2.00.6 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.00.6 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Now I've tried this with making some changes in the body and then go to the subject and change it. That will stay the same. But is this normal or should it work differently like changing subject go to body and then make a change there? Is this due to the way the macro's work? -- Cheers, Edgar Communicating with TB! v2.00.6, Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did.

E Is this due to the way the macro's work? In a word - yes. The template is invoked when moving from header to message body (to enact any required AB template following a change of recipient). If the body is flagged as modified then the template is not re-evaluated after moving from header to body. -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v2.00.22 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.00.6 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I have just one other question about setting subject headers though :-) If I set the header with %SUBJECT=Test and use this in a reply template. How can I change the set subject from within a quick template. I've tried it with %subject= %subject=no test but it stays test. -- Cheers, Edgar Communicating with TB! v2.00.6, Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 Money can't buy happiness but it can certainly rent it for a couple of hours.

E I've tried it with %subject= %subject=no test but it stays E test. Interesting. Works fine for me. It may be the same issue - without body changes, the execution of the macro terminates with a re-evaluation of the base template. -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v2.00.22 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.00.6 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Setting a subject
Hello All, I have an account for mailing lists. I want to do the following: - Create a message with the new message template in AB Groups [begin of macro] Hello %TOFNAME, %CURSOR %Qinclude=%AbTOHandle [end of macro] The macro includes a quick template with the handle of the group which I've entered in my AB (e.g. [bird-pix]) This is the quick template [bird-pix]: [begin of macro] -- Cheers, %FROMFNAME The Netherlands %WRAPPED=%COOKIE='D:\Quotes\files\coockie.txt' %LANGUAGE=AM %ACCOUNT=Home News %REPLYTO=Edgar [EMAIL PROTECTED] [end of macro] I also want to set a subject (identifying the group) in this case: Subject: [bird-pix] (with a space behind it). But when I use the %Subject=[bird-pix] macro it will set it but when I start a new message and enter something behind it (e.g. [bp] test), it will always jump back to [bird-pix] . How can I set the subject header and ad something to it? -- Cheers, Edgar Communicating with TB! v2.00.6, Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 The clever people never listen, and the stupid people never talk. - Oscar Wilde Current version is 2.00.6 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
