Yes, I did that, I did not use a macro. The address book template says Dear Joe and Sue, but it only shows up that way if I create the new email from the "New" button in the address book window, NOT if I am in the main screen calling up a New message and using the handle in the To: address line to address their mail. The result is only Dear Joe. Understandably this is hard to understand (even for me, and I wrote it!) Thanks for taking a look at this for me. -- Regards, Maggie ____________ Even overweight, cats instinctively know the cardinal rule: when fat, arrange yourself in slim poses. -John Weitz ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Emailing with The Bat! 3.99.29 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
