thanks for the info - it works .... on it's own, but ...
smartpants me wanted to try to adjust a neat macro I found in the library, and
as usual, I can't get it to work. Without TBUDL I wouldn't use TB, because I
couldn't use it the way, it's supposed to!
What's wrong here? I changed the last section.
%REM="
Include firstnames of all recipients in greeting up to the maximum
number specified in %_GAR_Max.

%_GAR_Max stores the maximum number of names you want in the greeting
line. Set this to suit your needs.
%_GAR_Default stores a default greeting to use when the message has
more than %_GAR_Max recipients. Set this to suit your needs.
%_GAR_No is the number of names in the greeting.
%_GAR_Text stores the original list of recipients.
%_GAR_Temp stores the list of recipients yet to be processed.
%_GAR_To stores the greeting.
