I don't know how you do it, but I do it by temporarily abusing an address book group, using some of the superfluous fields in the address book to hold the extra data. It can lead to some obtuse namings but works very well. The %ABTOblahblah macros will allow you to grab any field from an address book record in the MM Quick Template. Furthermore, Regular expression and %IF macros allow some superb per-target programmability. Immensely flexible! The CSV importer will allow you to map any import column to any address book field. Importing to a group keeps things separate. I only see a slight overhead in thought process in setting up the MM QT and an extra import stage. Other than that, I only see parallel functionality with potentially superior intelligence available. I'm not saying it's as easy to use as VA's mail merge. It clearly is not. I'm just saying that it is just as capable and possibly more so. > That's why I make a difference between "mass mailing" and full "mail > merge". ... and that's why I don't <g>. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
