Sorry, that was a bit too quickly sent: what I meant was: You already have a filter which reacts on subscriptions and adds the subscriber to the appropriate address book. In your reply QT you have to add %PUT with the result-file. -- Best regards, Gerd === Tutorial for using regular expressions with TheBat! www.regenechsen.de --- Plan for today as well as for tomorrow. --- now playing: WDR2 :-) Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBTECH" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

[...] If subscription and unsubscription is done by TB with a filter, you can add the following, which does the maths for you and writes the new number to a file. Here is the macro I wrote (Thanks to Karin Uhlig who gave me the hint!!): %COMMENT='%setpattregexp="\d{1,}"%regexpmatch="%put=_C:\TEMP\test.dat_"'%- %calc='%COMMENT + 1'%- Note: C:\TEMP\test.dat is the path which has to be adjusted ;-) Use this as the template for exporting a file (text) within a filter. The filter reacts on subscriptions and adds the subscriber to the appropriate address book. -- Best regards, Gerd === Tutorial for using regular expressions with TheBat! www.regenechsen.de --- Erwerbsregel #280 Regeln können nach Belieben interpretiert werden. --- now playing: WDR2 :-) Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBTECH" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Number of members
Hello Britt, It was foretold that on Saturday, December 7, 2002 at 14:37 GMT +0100, Britt Malka [BM] would type: BM> Is it possible to write the number of members in a certain group in BM> the address book with the help of reg.expr. or macros? The only way I can think of doing this is using a recursive template to count the number of entries in the To, CC or BCC fields. However, this won't work if you use the Mass Mailing feature as Gerd suggested, plus it may give inaccurate results if some people are listed multiple times. Your best bet may be to use some sort of external counting program to generate a text file with the info so you can use %PUT in your template. I don't know how you handle Subscription/Unsubscription requests, so I can't suggest simple filters to automate the task at this time. If you can tell us a little more about how your specific list setup works (or how you plan for it to work), then more tailored solutions may be available. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal All science is either physics or stamp collecting. -- E.

Number of members
Saturday, December 7, 2002 Dear tbtech, Is it possible to write the number of members in a certain group in the address book with the help of reg.expr. or macros? If so - which? We would like to use this in the bottom of mails to our mailing lists. -- Kind regards, Britt Malka |\/| | \__/ | \/\/ | | \\ // \ / \/ ... Oh, I'm sorry.
