Now when I look into the text file I have three empty lines followed by the one line of text and then 3 more empty lines. I then tried to export using the %TEXT Macro and it put the text on the first line, but with 3 blank lines after. I am trying to import the resulting text file into a database and when I do it imports 7 records in the first instance and 4 in the second. Any thoughts?

Export a message to a text file
Hello tbudl,
I want to export a message to a text file using Sorting Office. The
filter I set up is triggering, but nothing happens as far as
exporting the text that is in the file. Any ideas what I might be
doing wrong. The filter is attached.

Re: Confirmation required to delete a message
Hello Leonard, On Wed, 20 Sep 2006 you wrote in LSB> So, if your idea works, will I need a new folder for everyone in my LSB> address book for whom I have specific reply template ? Well, in my address book I have 28 different groups. Some of them only have a few names but others have many. Almost every group has specific message settings and, in some of the groups, selected individuals have more personal settings themselves so that, when a message is sent to one of them, they get their more personalised message whereas others in the group get the general group message. So, to answer your question, no, you don't need a new folder for everyone in your address book but they do need to be in your address book and either in a folder that already has its own specific mail sending templates or you do need to give specific people in the address book the correct templates or details individually for sending messages so that it all works properly. For instance this message to you, and all my messages to TB! is sent using the same template with the standard greeting, quote heading and sig. At the same time I could assign you a specific and more personal template that would override the folder template that would in turn override the address book template that would override the main general template. Honestly it really does seem, as Roelf has said already, that you've got a setting wrong somewhere and I've been there and done that only recently because I had a filter setting that suddenly put a message from a particular person into the trash folder. I swore black and blue that I'd checked every thing but I hadn't and I had to hang my head in shame! I suggest you go over everything with a fine tooth comb and I'm willing to bet my bottom dollar (don't have many anyway) that that's what it'll be :-) -- Regards, Richard | The Bat! 3.85.03 with POP3 account & AntispamSniper 1.6.7.2 | Windows XP (build 2600) version 5.1 Service Pack 2 | F-Prot AV, Outpost Firewall Pro, Spysweeper, Adaware, SpyBot | CPU: Athlon 1.09 Ghz | RAM: 1024 MB Holiday in France: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/lazyhomes/holiday.html Current version is 3.85.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

FWIW, all entries in my personal address book belong to some AB group (with templates for the individual groups). I have unchecked the "hide items if not explicitely selected" checkbox in all my AB groups so that I can see all entries in my AB when I click on the "root" personal address book. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de) Everything science has taught me, and continues to teach me, strengthens my belief in the continuity of our spiritual existence after death. -- Wernher von Braun Current version is 3.85.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I am unable to "Safely Remove Devices" as voyager.exe is still active in the process list for several minutes after the window disappears.

I have the global view set to "no view selected", and then for each folder that I want to be threaded, I right-click in the "Subject" heading of the message list. This brings up the list of possible views, and I select "threaded" from it. That appears to set some partially hidden property of the single folder, without having any effect on the others.

I'd like to view some folder message lists threaded and others NOT threaded. In fact, I have FOUR folders whose messages lists are ALWAYS threaded. But all of the other folders seems to use the last threading option I've chosen. I've looked at the folder properties and not found any threading settings there, only on the main menu (and Alt+1, Alt+0, etc.). If this is possible, where is it hidden? If it is NOT (supposed to be) POSSIBLE, then how did I manage to alter this setting for four of my folders?
