Hi, newbie to FM5 here!!

I have created a form letter as a layout. I have sorted/omitted all my records down to those I want tos send this letter to. All have email addresses in the email field. How do I sent this email to just these people? I tried the send mail script but must not have done it correctly. It brought up the Mail program (I am Mac OSx), but it does not appear to have sent the layout to those people. What do I need to do to accomplish this?

Thanks!

You cannot send the records in the style of your form, only the content of the fields.

To achieve this you need to generate the output to provide an attachment in that style - maybe via Acrobat or HTML.

Ths won't be easy, and I'm not sure where I would start.

The body of the letter must be text, either generated by a calculation or in a field. Then you need either a global field which you populate using a script which loops through the found set adding email addresses and a ; to create the to field or a script that loops through each record sending the mail.
