Hi
I've SLX6.2.x and we are using lot of "mail merge" functions.
But have a contact more the one address then ask me SLX witch type of address I want.
I want to use only the primary address! It is possible to set this as global setting.
I do'nt want to see every time this question on my screen.
any body an idee?

| Sorry, that's a hard coded area. You won't be able to change that. |

Actually... there IS a way around it....
Don't use the address tab on the mail merge fields.
Click "Insert SLX Field", then "More SLX Fields"
DO NOT USE THE ADDRESS TAB.
1. Try pulling the address fields off of that first contact tab.
if that doesn't work, then you can
2. set up a local join from contact to address contact.addressid = address.addressid
one of those should do the trick.

Now I understud the workaround of SLX MailMerge. I've create more Calculated-Fields only of contacts then I get only the primary address
and SLXis quite but work 
One Question: They are a possibility to merge all contatcs in on Word-File?
Now SLX create of 50 Contacts 50 Word-Files.
