bigzilla Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 We use a [Letters] file where we design all of our Fax and Email correspondence. The body of the letter is in a text field called "LetterBody". My question is, is there a way to have a line of information appear at the top or on the bottom of the body of the letter, even though it isn't typed there? Hard coded, so to speak. In other words, if a letter is typed: "It is time for our Giant Introductory Sale and we.....etc.. But when we print or email, a company line is automatically added so the letter would read. “From Big Bill's Boys Ranch†"It is time for our Giant Introductory Sale and we.....etc... Is there a way to do this without 1. Having to type it into the actual letter body, and 2. So it cannot be deleted from the letter? It's OK if it is shown in the LetterBody, it just can't be optional, it must be there and it cannot be deleted! Thanks guys, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maarten Witberg Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Is this company line dependent on the content of the LetterBody field? If so, how? Otherwise, why not put it on the layout? kjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigzilla Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi Kjoe, No, the content of the LetterBody is not important. Regardless of the LetterBody we want "From Big Bill's Boys Ranch" Most of what we send is eMailed so a layout would not work. It must be in the LetterBody.

harryglos Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Hi Bill, I don't know of a good way to perform this function for a fax, other than by the use of a Plug-in. It can be done however and quite easily on an email. You've seen emails where on the bottom it will say something like "click here if you wish to be removed from our mailing list". This is Hard Coded, to use your term and it can be done for you’re "From Big Bill's Boys Ranch" as well. Give us a shout if you want to go that direction.

Robert Schaub Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Why can't you just use calcs and globals field? gTrialerField = global , use this field to enter what you what in trail of letter I.E. ""It is time for our Giant Introductory Sale and we.....etc..." cLetterBody = calc = LetterBody & "¶"& "¶"& "¶" & “From Big Bill's Boys Ranch†& "¶" & gTrialerField Use this field in your print layout or use in send mail script.
