Hi, I have to select a program to do Mailing list and form letter
generation. The functions required are ability to 'scrunch' out blank
lines so the labels look nice; ability to select only those records
with a key field matching the requested key; ability to only print
some of the fields; ability to do form letters (Or data file compatibilty
with Word's form letter function); and most importantly- it has to
work with a laserwriter. Please don't suggest Word - it does do
everything, except that you really can't do key-selection of label output
on a non-imagewriter. (Try it- without recursive INCLUDEing or one
of  WHILE/UNTIL/GOTO instructions you can't)
 If anyone can suggest a dedicated Mail program OR a database that WILL
do this relatively easily please let me know.
If your interested in hearing results also let me know.
Thanks, Mike.
