Each of our thirty or so members replies to the weekly message. Each reply has a formalized Subject: line, which includes either YES or NO, the replying member's name, and the date of the meeting. Unfortunately, our society's director is a "computer-uncertain" individual, and he refuses to deal with the individual replies. Instead, I must make a list of the YES and NO replies, and e-mail the list, to the director, in a single message. (The director uses the information in his scheduling of the small, chamber-sized groups of musicians, who will play together during the evening.) I use TheBat! to filter the messages into separate YES and NO folders. I have been sorting each folder's subjects into alphabetically-ordered lists of who will and who will not attend, and manually typing copies of the subjects into the text of the single e-mail message to the director. I'd like to automate the incorporation of the information in the two folders' message lists, into the text of a single message. Ideally, I'd like only the subjects of the messages to appear in the text of the single message. (If necessary, everything in the lists would be acceptable.) If it is not possible to generate the message automatically, I'd like to highlight, cut and paste information from the two folders' message message lists into the text of the single message. Thank you for your help. -- Dan Using The Bat! v1.62 Christmas Edition on Windows 95 4.0 Build 1111a -- Daniel A.
