The basic problem was the overseas addresses were so long, that the label report would truncate things. And when I went to edit the label template, Goldmine would crash. So I thought it would be just as fast to export the data and use Word.</></>Interesting you are having problems with the comments tool. You can still use your account, but I can see how the new choices are confusing. Play with it a bit. I was hoping the new comments notification would be a cool catch-up to Wordpress.
