Jan,
Your information is proving to be beyond helpful! I appreciate it so much.
Just one more question for you. I am starting to understand how to use the
'user defined' fields. However, how do i print out a report using the custom
columns?
I will try and make this as abbrieviated as possible. I have accounts set
up. (We're a landscape architecture firm). I've set up various user defined
fileds to indicate which type of business each account is (architect,
engineer, planner, etc.)
I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it, but as a trial, i went into a
couple of my accounts who i know are architects. at the top of the screen, i
went to the "show" menu, clicked on user defined fields, and then put an "x"
next to the Architect field.
Now i want to print out a report which would include all of our architects.
I cilick on reports, accounts, by category, and then when i go to print out
the report, under "modify report", custom columns and click the box
"architect".
This pulls together a list which a check mark next to all the architects.
however, the $64,000 question is:
is there a way to print up ONLY the architects under this report using the
user defined fields?
i know that's the long winded version of asking that question but if you
have any info that would be greatly appreciate.
Thanks so much!
