Hello Doug and Laura, Just a quick question, are you wanting to track the two digit class year so that it can be included in addressee/salutations? If so, unfortunately, attributes will not work as a solution. I've worked with a few clients in the past who wanted to be able to have an addressee listed...

Salut Mary, I didn't see anyone else reply so thought that I would pipe in with what I have seen other multi-lingual organizations do. First, this solution would depend on the data being entered in a specific manner in your database. Using your example of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, if the titles are entered...

We have a bilingual mailout: one side of our letter is English and one side is French. Would someone be able to tell me how (and where) you would post salutations in 2 different languages in Raisers Edge so that we could print both – one on one side of the letter and one on the other side of the letter...

I am trying to send out letters to all of our donors to our last capital campaign asking them to verify how they want their information listed on the new donor wall. I used a Donor Category Report to get all the names in the different categories and the total amount that each donor gave. The letter,...

Imagine that you are Mr. Belding , principal of Bayside High. It's time for you to send out the Class of 1993 alumni newsletter, and you want to make sure that it goes to each alumnus's address only once. For some of your alumni, that's easy - Jesse Spano , A.C. Slater , and Lisa Turtle all...

Hi, I'm trying to import editable salutations in to RE 7.85 and the system is asking me for Salutation ID's. I understand how to see Salutations ID's but I do not want to use pre-existing salutations that are made up by formulas. I.e. 1 Mr. and Mrs. Smith 2 John and Jane Smith. The salutations...

I am having several problems with using the 'mail/honour memorial acknowledgement' function in RE since we upgraded to Vista Business and Office 2007. My mem. acknowledgements were working fine before, however, now my merge fields are empty, or pulling the wrong information. In the addressee...

I have been asked to research how to accomplish the following format change for our mailings. For alumni, we would like to move away from the formal combined addressee format and use the following: Change from Mr. and Mrs. John Smith 12 Main Street Anywhere, PA 00000 to a 2 line addressee for married...

Did the previous reply solve your issue? Or are you wanting to change the configuration to create a new addressee so it would be a selection for multiple records and you would not have to edit each one? If you wish to create a new addressee format, it's done through Configuration >> Addressees...

I would like to add parenthesis to a addressee in RE. I am not finding a way to do this. Does anyone have any ideas? This is the format I am trying to do for our directory. Anderson, Kathy (Mark)
