Tips & Tricks
|
|
From
ACT!'s "Write" menu, you can write template-based
letters to any contact in your ACT! database.
Template letters will appear in the default word
processor--either the ACT! word processor or
Microsoft Word.
When letters created from within ACT! are printed in
the word processor, a history of the letter having
been sent can be automatically created in the
History tab for your contact.
Best of all, field information from your ACT!
database can be sent over into your letters, so
you'll never have to re-type someone's address in a
letter again.
Click these links to learn more detailed information
about the tips outlined in this issue:
Setting the Default Word Processor
Writing Letters, Memos, and Fax Cover Pages
Writing Other Template-Based Letters
As always, if you have any questions about ACT!, please do not hesitate to get
in touch with one of our
ACT! Certified Consultants.
