Thank you - it's great to encourage other developers as you get
involved yourself :-)

 One item I would like to see improved is the Mail Merge, namely the
 address labels. When viewing the forms it would be nice to see the
 actual names and addresses in the sheet as well, just as a preview
 before the printing function. That way a person can see how the names
 will fit into an area and do some changes if necessary. Maybe add a
 option in the view menu to select record view to make it easy. 

Sure - there are plenty of things that can be improved in mail-merge;
when you have your first build done, am most happy to help you out with
some code pointers to get stuck into that.

All the best,

Michael.

Mail Merge Functionality

good work.
