this might be a real newbie thing, but can i actually manually select a number of records from my contact database, and then send an email to all of them? (i know how to send the email, but not how to pick a few records by hand)

sometimes i just want to browse my database, and make a selection of several records, and then export those records or do something else with them...

thanks for any tips!

..just set up a checkbox with one value in its assigned value list i.e. "selected"... then browse through the records you want to select, tick the checkbox... then, find all your ticked checkboxes, send an email to found set, and then make some sort of script goes through all the found records and that sets this field back to "".

i've made the checkboxes, with one option (selected/not selected), and a script to deselect all afterwards. does exactly what i wanted...
