You could only do this, I believe, if the email address is the only content (I can't see any script stripping everything but the address away, although it might be possible with wild cards). If this is the case, why not just convert the memo to alpha numeric and use the native merge program in any text editor?

I have Paradox 11 running on both W7 &Vista (downtown/home office). I had not connected the frequent file corruption issues I had been experiencing with Vista until recently, believing that the only issue with Vista was the exit annoyance. Having finally figured this out, I followed the links for the X4 upgrades and hot fixes to find that they do not exist. Most lead to an ad to buy Corel Draw, but a couple to a page no longer exists message. I called Corel and was directed to download the X5 patch, which will not install with X4. I would agree with the poster above, that Corel has abandoned this product and simply coasts on what they have had. I am unfortunately stuck with it and will have to upgrade my OS if I want to  be able to work from home. This is pretty shoddy of Corel, to say the least.

I get the following error: "query has too many variables". Is there a limit on the number of variables in a query? (there are 210)Thank you,

the answer is yes. 200 Variables is the maximum.

Thanks for the response. No, it is not a typo. It is true to Irwin's code, seen below. I did try the variation, but the outcome is the same.  The single quote ' can replace the . It's usual purpose is to avoid confusion of property names and object names. I don't think there's a problem here, but since Irwin used it, it seems practical. (If, for instance, you have a field named Color.)  The issue has been resolved. It was apparently caused by a typo in the name field on the form (which I suspected, but I guess I can't even proofread four letters at a time.) Below is the orignial code for the Orders database on the form.  In my adaptation the db field name is NAME, the field in the search form is fldNAME. I am sure I will find more issues as I continue with the project. I know that Paradox has not been very  important to  Corel for some  years now, but it's a pity that they don't offer this feature via interface. It would make the program enormo...

in  this adaptation of Mike Irwin's Query by form process I get Error: Unknown Identifier at "stNAME = fldNAME'value" following  the variable statements. fldNAME is the name of the first field on the form. Can anyone tell me what I keep missing? Here is the Original http://www.thedbcommunity.com/dload/linksender.htmMany thanks. ,
