Yes - it happens when you have Contacts/Accounts with no Primary address.

Here's some SQL that might help you out.

select a.accountid, a.account
from account a
where not exists (select addr.addressid from address addr where addr.entityid = a.accountid and addr.isprimary = 'T')

Works for accounts - modify it a little and it will work for contacts too.

Thanks Phil, the SQL works great, the suspect record is not part of the result. Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Have you checked whether there are any single quotes/apostrophes in the addresses? That can end up being a gotcha on SQL queries involving addresses. Another thing to check could be the use of a calculated field for the address-city-st-zip if you are applying a group.

Ah, excellent. I had the same problem and discovered with the help of this post that the contact's address was not marked as primary (or shipping)
