HELP! A program that will merge fields into email?

[Another_Karen]

I tried Reed's suggestion of emailing directly from FM but that won't work for me because I have fields that need to be merged into a form letter in the body of my email.

Can't do it in Word because Word won't let me add merge fields to the subject or address.

Is there a program out there that will:

~ merge fields into static text (form letter)? AND

~ use an email address from my FM exported records (NOT from my email program's address book!) AND

~ allow me to put both static text and a merge field in the subject line?

Anybody??

FMp will do this.

use a calculated field to join fields together... use the "&" character between the fields.

Firstname & " " & Surname

Thanks Vaughan! That works.

Now I have just one more question: I can't figure out how to add carriage returns to the calculation.

Never mind, I FINALLY found it. Thanks again, Vaughn.

SMTPit does a great job and really, all the fields are customizable. You can get it from the FMP website plugins.
