Dear Adriano

I hope you can help me....

I need to get an xcel list of names and addresses to create labels for a mailing to clients who have not got email addresses. I don't know how to go about this ... I have tried but without success.

I need to create the labels ASAP as the mailing must go out WEdnesday... because of the short week.

Can you send me some instructions please?

best wishes

Marianne

Hi Marianne,

You have 2 ways of doing this:

A.Exporting the data out of AM and into Excel and using Word mail merge feature

B.Using the inbuilt Label editor within AM




A - You need to create an export of the clients from AM in Excel. The easiest way to do this is:

1)Go to Marketing -> Clients
2)Make a selection of the ones you need to export (eg. Query for the ones without an email address)
3)Click the QuickReport Editor icon
4)Move the fields that you want to export (eg. Surname, Name, address, etc.)
5)Go to the File menu of the QuickReport editor and change the Print Destination to Disk File
6)Go to the File menu of the QuickReport editor and select Generate then save the export file with a name
7)Open this exported file with Excel and manage the Labels printing from Word mail merge

I have attached for your reference the complete QuickReport editor manual which will help you understand this module.

File Attachment:
File Name: 4D_2003_Quick_Report_Ref.pdf
File Size: 85190


B – In order to use AM in built Labels editor you need to do the following:

1)Go to Marketing -> Clients
2)Make a selection of the ones you need to export (eg. Query for the ones without an email address)
3)Highlight all selected records
4)Click the Labels Editor icon
5)Then follow the instructions in the attached pdf User reference manual under Chapter 9 Labels


In conclusion, if you are familiar with Word Mail merge feature, or know somebody that can help you with that, use the first option as it is pretty straight forward. For the future I suggest you spend some time learning Chapter 9 of the User reference manual and master the creation of labels directly in AM.


This is all,
Adriano

Kathleen,

I have emailed you the files and we will be investigating why these uploaded files cannot be downloaded from the forum since we have upgraded to a newer version.
