Helpful people: I'm in the mist of creating a style sheet for data entry. We are having a lively in-house debate about setting mininum standards. Currently we are considering setting the following mininum required fields: -prefix -first name -last name -complete home or work address (we have customize ebase to enable us to put in to sets of addresses - dave's handy work!) -work tel or home tel or cell tel or email This would enable us to send solicitations and other communications to contacts using a few methods. Considerable resistance exists from programming/campaigning staff to being required to input last names or home phone numbers. The standards are being label discriminatory as they wouldn't enable people who don't want to give all this contact information access to our communications. I would welcome advice on what contact fields to set as required fields and why? Also, does anyone have recommendations regarding the process for developing/adopting a style sheet? regards. shaugn ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
