I'm using Macintosh with FM Pro 5.0 and ebase 100.

As a new user of ebase, I've been asked to make certain members 
"complimentary" members, due to their overall contributions.  The 
purpose is to have our bulletins go out to these people even if they 
allow their memberships to lapse.  I'm confused about changing and 
tracking these member's status.

There is a calculated field called Doner type in Names which has 
values including "honorary".

There's also a "mbr type" field in the dues section of the payments 
screen which can have the value "complimentary".  If I change this 
value to "complimentary" the value of calculated field "status" 
doesn't change from "lapsed" to "current", so there's still a risk 
that these members would not receive bulletins if they were only sent 
to the members who's status field = "current".

What's the best way to accomplish this, in other's experience?

Thanks in advance for the help.
