They all have names that start with Tribute... and are intended to track various features of a tribute payment Tribute Type - whether the payment was in memory of, or in honor of... Tribute Notification Address - address to which you send notification of the payment Tribute Notification - whether the notification was sent Tribute\Match info - flag field which notes whether tribute or match info exists. These fields aren't on a layout, but if you are using FileMaker you can put them on a layout in some place convenient. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
