Re: Ghost QT
Hello Assad, > Tonight I tried your suggestion. I deleted the account.qtn from my > main mail account and all my quick templates were there except the > ghost template disappeared by magic.. Strange but it works. Thanks for > the suggestion. That's because it was a shared account QT, not a common one and of course no ghost. Anyway, glad it works for you now. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

As I say above, Common QTs are totally independent of Common folders. I have several common QTs and don't have (never had) any common folders. Please try what I suggested in my previous message. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

You may try something. - Exit TB. - Look for ACCOUNT.QTB file in your MAIL directory (which holds Common QTs). - Copy it to a safe place and then delete it or rename it. - Start TB and try to use your 'salutation' QT. - If it doesn't work, then you are right and it is a Common QT - If it does work, then my friend, it is a shared account QT Don't forget to exit TB and get your original ACCOUNT.QTB file back in place.

My QT list has a heading of "Common Templates" at the top, under which are all my common QTs. Below that each account name appears as a heading, but there are no QTs under the account headings as I only use common ones. -- Best regards MFPAmailto:2014-667rhzu3dc-lists-gro...@riseup.net COMMITTEE: A body that keeps minutes and wastes hours.

Re: Ghost QT
Hello Assad, Saturday, April 12, 2014, 3:37:33 PM, you wrote: AK> Really it's not there! I'm not blind. That's why it's a ghost! Well, if it IS a ghost, then you should contact some other instance, such as, f.i. Ghost Busters; some might prefer to call a shaman, others would play safe and call Jennifer Love-Hewitt! :-) Seriously, such a problem can be very annoying, I had a problem with a QT that would not work, not set up as a address-group based QT, not as a folder template; not even when it was used as a contact-specific QT. Turned out I was testing it with a contact of which the email-address was also used in another contact with a quite similar name (belonging to the same person), but that did not belong to the address-group I was working with. So, if it is not a ghost, the only advice I can give you: don't look for the obvious... -- Kind regards, Mark Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Ghost QT
Hello Assad, > It is common because I tested the handle with different accounts and it works. Then, if you don't have any Common QTs, it must be an Account QT that is *shared*.

Any idea? Is it an account-specific QT, or is it listed under "common templates"? If it is account-specific, is it listed under a different account to where you are looking? It may have the "share with other accounts" box ticked. Are the name and the handle different? -- Best regards MFPAmailto:2014-667rhzu3dc-lists-gro...@riseup.net Roses smell better than onions but don't make such good soup Using The Bat! v4.0.38 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Ghost QT
Hello Assad, > I have a ghost quick template. It triggers but I cannot find it in > the Quick Templates list. Any idea? I think you should try to give some more details of what is happening and why you think it is because of a 'ghost' QT. If you can't find it in the QT list, how do you know it is a QT what is triggering/executing? AFAIK, QTs don't trigger/execute automatically, they are either executed manually by typing its handle followed by Ctrl+Space or because they are 'called' from another QT or template with the %QINCLUDE macro. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
