Multiple contacts and merge fields

I am trying to created a Pages document in which I can have merge fields for more than 1 contact, ie sending off a letter to contact #1, yet in reference to contact #2. Can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this. Example:
Contact #1 name
Contact #1 address
RE: contact #2 name, contact #2 date of birth
Dear Contact #1,
Any direction is greatly appreciated

Not suppported.
The model for merge is a personalized letter, sent to a specific person. You can merge information from two records: a Sender card, which is the one in Address Book that is identified as MyCard), and a Merge card (which is the intended recipient of the 'letter').
Additional Merge cards will generate separate copies of the document.
Regards,
Barry

  • Create Multiple Signature and Date fields with a custom Toolbar Button

    First off, thanks in advance!  I am a scripting newbie and I am trudging my way through with very little experience with scripting of any kind.  I am good at taking other's scripts and forming them into something I need, but I can't seem to find anything to do what I want.
    Using Adobe Acrobat X, I am trying to create a toolbar button that I can press to create multiple signature and date fields with predetermined locations.
    Below is the script I have that is working to create just a single signature box, but I can't seem to figure out the exact syntax to have that same button create multiple fields.  In total it is 9 signature fields and 9 date fields need to be created.  If you can just give me an example of what the button would look like with multiple scripts?  I was assuming I would set up multiple variables and then in the cExec property of the toolbar button I could just call out all of those variables? 
    var sigswm = "addField('sigSWM', 'signature', '0', [108, 198, 494.64, 72])"
    app.addToolButton({cName: "dotbutton", cExec: sigswm, cLabel: "Place Signature and Date Blocks",});
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Thanks!  That was probably the only thing I didn't try.
    I do have one more question.  What I want is when the signature field is clicked it fills out a specific date field. I beleive the script I want would be:
    var currentTime = new Date()
        var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
        var day = currentTime.getDate()
        var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
        var signingTime = day +"/"+month+"/"+year
        var f = this.getField("dateSWM"); 
        f.value = signingTime;
    I found this on another thread that mentioned it could be placed in the Signed tab of the signature properties dialog.  I am assuming it would be placed in my button script file as a setAction script for each signature, but I am not real sure exactly where or how?

  • Selecting multiple layers and merge

    is it possible to select multiple layers (with layermask) and merge them?
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS6"
        tell current document
            set current layer to every layer of layer set "bloem 1-9" of layer set "Bloem"
            tell current layer
                merge
            end tell
        end tell
    end tell

    Yes, for that you have to select the layers that are in the set. Here is one way using javascript
    function selectLayerBelow( add ){
        var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
            var ref = new ActionReference();
            ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " ), charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" ), charIDToTypeID( "Bckw" ) );
        desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID( "null" ), ref );
        if(add!=undefined && add = true )desc.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID('selectionModifier'), stringIDToTypeID('selectionModifierType'), stringIDToTypeID('addToSelectionContinuous') );
        desc.putBoolean( charIDToTypeID( "MkVs" ), false );
        executeAction( charIDToTypeID( "slct" ), desc, DialogModes.NO );
    // assumes a layerSet the the activeLayer and doesn't work correctly if there are nested layerSets
    var numberOfLayersInSet = app.activeDocument.activeLayer.layers.length;
    selectLayerBelow();
    for(var layerIndex = 1;layerIndex<numberOfLayersInSet;layerIndex++){
        selectLayerBelow( true );
    app.activeDocument.activeLayer.merge();

  • How to use one pop up window for multiple buttons and input fields?

    Hi Experts,
    I have created a pop up window that will be opened from multiple buttons in the same view. There are input fields that the data will be populated from a pop up window.  How can I set up which button that a pop up window is opened from? I also would like to populate the data from a pop up window to the input field next to a clicked button. There are 6 buttons and 6 input fields that share the same pop up window. I would very appreciate your responses.
    Thank you,
    Don

    Hi,
    Try creating 2 context attributes, one in your component controller and the other in the pop-up view. Bind the attribute of pop-up view to the component controller attribute.
    In the main view, on click of every button set a unique code in the controller's context which helps you in identifying the button clicked. Since u have created a binding to the pop-up view attribute the value flows from the controller.
    In the init method of your pop-up view, check the value of the attribute and based on that display which ever UI elements are required.
    Eg:
    On Button 1 click set value "B1", Button 2  value "B2" etc. In the init() of pop-up view u can check the values and perform the required operation:
    if(("B1").wdContext().currentContextElement().getButtonIdentifier()){
    else...{
    Hope this helps you.

  • Need to sync contacts and merge

    I have been syncing my Iphone 3g but have not been syncing the contacts. I now want to do that, but there are contacts on the phone and PC. I want to keep both and not overwrite and delete (blank out) one or the other. Instead I want to have both the PC and phone with data equal to both combined. How do I do this without losing data? It's not real clear in the initial sync what will really happen.

    Just did it and it worked great. I have some cleaning up to do now, but at least the phone contacts are backed up. 1026 contacts. The only thing it asked me was if it was OK to change the following contacts on my PC. Then it showed the number it was going to ADD, but non to change or delete. It never asked for a merge....although that's what it did.

  • Multiple choices and table fields

    I am designing a form application now and I am stuck in some problems. One of them is related to multiple choices:
    The application looks like question-answer style. E.x:
    Funded goods before:
    a. Bed b. Chair c. Computer d. Clothing e. Book
    How do I save those answers? I mean do I need to create 5 fields in the table for saving the each above anwsers like:
    create table Goods (Bed varchar(1), Chair varchar(1), Computer varchar(1)...)
    If a, c, e are chosed, goods.bed = 'Y', goods.computer = 'Y', goods.Book= 'Y'.
    Please give me help. Many thanks and waiting.

    No, you don't need to store them in a table. You will put 5 checkboxes next to each of the five choices and you will check the value of the combo if it is either 1 or 0. You will set the ValueWhenChecked property of the item to 1 and the ValueWhenUnchecked property of the item to 0 . So if the value of the checkbox is 0 then it is unchecked and when it is 1 it is selected.
    So in your example you can write :
    if ( :bed='1' and :computer = '1' and :book = '1' ) then
    I hope i helped you.

  • Itunes library and NAS - multiple computers and merging music

    I've just bought a Western Digital myBookWorld edition 2TB network drive, and I've gone through (the incredibly painful) process of moving my music from my desktop to the network drive. But now my desktop looks to the network drive for it's music and it seems to be working ok.
    My girlfriend has a laptop, which is always connected to the network (don't travel with it at all) which has a different library of music. At the moment on that laptop she uses the iTunes server element of the NAS drive and so plays my music by using the shared bit of itunes.
    What I'd quite like though is both computers to use the network permanently - so when I buy songs on my gf's laptop, I'd like that music to be available on my desktop, so the most sensible way to do it would seem to be having both computers using the network drive as it's primary source of music, rather than using the sharing bit on the laptop.
    I can't just copy the music off the laptop to the network drive because there will inevitably be singers with the same names etc, and I presume it will overwrite what's on the drive if I try to do a windows copy and paste. So is there a way that I can merge the music libraries, by adding the songs that are on the laptop to the songs already on the NAS, and then have both computers use the NAS as their location for storage?
    A further complication is that my gf has her own playlists etc (and her ipod syncs with her laptop whereas my iphone connects with my desktop) that I'd like to maintain if possible.
    Grateful for any thoughts.

  • Matching and Merging Qualified fields

    Hi,
    I want to match and merge fields in a qualified table.
    Eg: Have to match the Street, City(Yes Qualifier) in the Qualified table Address.
    Have created the transformation, rule and startegy on these fields.
    When I execute the strategy, i'm able to see the scores and class.
    But in the "Merge" tab only fields of Main table are visible. I'm not able to see the required Address table fields and hence not able to make the decision on which field should be merged.
    How do i execute this scenario?

    Hi ketan,
      Basically you can perform matching and merging only on Main table and not on qualified tables; and if you have to match any qualified lookup field in the main table then it should be an qualifier field(i.e. the qualified option should be YES),
      And while matching the records of a qualifier field when the values matches it shows only the display fields of the qualified table not the qualifier fields as already they have the same value you don't require them again.
      I couldn't understand the structure you gave above, but i will take this example
    Qualified table(Price)
           field_Name          Displayfiled       Qualifiedfield
             Price                      Yes                 No
             Quantity                 Yes                  No
             Currency               No                     YES
    Main table(Products)
              field_Name         Type            
              Product               Text
               Price                Look-up(Price)
    now the values in main table
       Product          Price
      cream            05 | 10 | Rs
      Cloth             10 | 05 | $
      Pen               20 | 02 | Rs
      Pencil            02 | 02 | Rs
    now you write a rule using the price lookup qualifier field.
    it will show  cream , pen and pencil as matching.
    you can now merge as
    ___________       cream                 Pen         Pencil
    ___________        05 | 10               20 | 02      02 | 02 
    now you can select the product any one of those there and price any one of those three but as the currency qualifier field is same for all; its not displayed nor is it showed over here.
    If the scenario is different form this which you require; please let me know, but the common scenario is the same.
    Regards,
    CHARAN

  • Trying to delete multiple contacts at once on iPhone

    I wanted a large (~200) subset of my contacts (within Outlook) to be added to my iPhone, so I used the iTunes Contact Sync to get all of my contacts there (rather than type in 200 with the iPhone keyboard, which leaves something to be desired). Now I have all of my contacts on the iPhone, but only want the 200 or so.
    Is there an easy way to select a group or multiple contacts and mark them for deletion? Right now it appears as if I need to go through one by one, which will NOT work for me.
    thanks.

    There is no such option with the iPhone.

  • Sync Address to Contacts and Date to Calendar on my desktop software?

    How can I sync Address to Contacts and Date to Calendar on my desktop software?  Entered info before I discovered that sync to TX only syncs Contacts & Calendar. Thanks!
    Post relates to: Palm IIIc

    Hello!
    The palm desktop application uses Contacts and Calendar fields BUT really its the conduits in your hotsync manager that needs attention.  First be sure to install the Palm Desktop found on your Palm TX CD for it will have both the Calendar, Contacts, Memos, and Tasks conduits also the DateBook, Address, To Dos, and Memo Pad conduits.  The software should be able to identify which of these sets of 4 your device has and use the respected conduits to sync the data to Calendar and Contacts fields in Palm Desktop by just doing a hotsync.  Now in this case be sure to keep different user profiles for each device.  Are you tring to migrate data from Palm IIIc to the Palm TX?  Keep me posted.

  • Following the most recent IOS IPhone update our Iphone calendars, contacts and messages have all merged. This problem has never happened before. We all use the same Itunes account as a family and one AppleID. Does anyone know the cause of this problem?

    We have 4 Iphones. As a family we have happily shared the same ITunes account and one AppleID. After the most recent iPhone IOS update all our contacts and calendars have merged and we randomly receive some messages that one of us has sent to another contact.
    This is causing chaos.
    Can anyone help me with:
    1. Has anyone experienced a similar problem recently?
    2. The records to the individual phones have not been saved been saved separately. After this merging of all the data into one composite record, is there anyway to reverse the change and restore the phones to just their individual records?
    3. I guess that the cause may be the common AppleID. I have tried to create my own AppleID but my personal email address is already linked to the existing AppleID so I am blocked from setting up a separate AppleID in my own name. Does anyone know how I can get around this block?
    4. Would it be better to create a separate Apple ICloud address for each of us as well? How do I do this?
    Many thanks in anticipation,
    Peter

    This is exactly what happens when sharing a single Apple ID for iCloud and iMessage.  Why would you expect any different?

  • I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
    If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
    Hope that helps!
