Hello Roelof, Thank you. I tried it and it worked. I then reverted back to %TOFNAME in the recipient line of the template -- and now that worked, too! Still I like the ABtoFIRSTNAME ,since it will also look for the first name from the header if it's not in the Address Book.
Also, I'm using your advice about how to reply digest listings. This is the "maiden voyage." Thanks again. I'm beginning to get better control of The Bat! -- Best regards, Orrie "First things first," mandates sci-fi icon Doctor Who, "but not necessarily in that order." -- Thursday, January 24, 2002, 10:26:00 AM, you wrote: OF>> How can I get it say "Hi Joe," and get TB to recognize changes I make OF>> in recipient info.
