You can't customize the letters without FileMaker. You can export records, though, and a lot of people export data to a text file and mailmerge that data with a merge template created in Word. >Also, if we need >to purchase filemaker, should we wait to enter our members until it's >installed, or can we start now and then import the files? > You won't even need to import. FileMaker will open the same data files that the runtime application does. You will be able to access your data directly once you get FileMaker - if that's the route you choose. -- -- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
