Rep Power: 19 | I don't know what "MindSpring" is, but we use an external (to Helios) email program mainly to automate the processing of "Bounces" and "Opt-outs" for 1000's of email addresses which can be a real pain to do manually. We use MS-Access to export email addresses and update Helios with Bounce and Opt-out results. MS-Access also comes in handy for reparing and compacting data files (which can become twichy if not maintained), and custom reports. If you get or have MS-Access, let me know if you need a kick start on this. Tom |

Rep Power: 25 | You can use SmartMail to create the smail.mdb file (it contains the Home and Work Email fields) with the desired selection criteria and use Access to open smail.mdb and extract the email address. Perhaps your "MindSpring" program will also directly access the smail.mdb database. |
