MORE ABOUT COLORSTORE -- Address Book

The Address Book allows you to store address and miscellaneous data information about family members, friends, and business associates. These names can then be used with our Mail Merge feature, which allows you to send the same document to many different people (such as party invitations), without re-typing in address information.

Additional information about the items listed below can be found in the on-line help located within the ColorStore program.

NOTE: This option is not available if you chose "Run From the CD" during installation.

To Add a New Address

  1. Go to File>Address Book. The Address Book window will appear. It contains sample data to give you an idea of what each field should contain.
  2. Begin typing. Use the Tab key to get to each field. Type over the sample text. If you do not delete the sample text, the program will assume that the field should be blank. When you are through, press the "Insert" button.
  3. To start another record, press the "Clear" button. It will clear the contents of the current page, but not delete the record. Press the "Sample" button to display sample text for each field.

To Edit /Delete an Existing Address

  1. Use the arrow keys to get to the record you would like to update. Use the find symbol (the glasses button located on the top-left corner of the Address Book window) or the letters on the right side of the window to list by last name.
  2. Use the Tab key to navigate to the field you would like to update. Type your changes. Press the "Replace" button when you are through. To delete a record, press the "Remove" button.

To Add Addresses to a Mailing List.

  1. Press the "Envelope" button at the top of the Address Book window.
  2. Select a mailing list by single clicking on it. To add a new mailing list, single click on the "New" button. Type in a name and press OK. Select the new list.
  3. Press the "Edit" button. Addresses currently in that list will be marked by an "*". Single click to add or remove the address records from the mailing list.
  4. Press OK and then Exit when you are through.

To Use Mail Merge

  1. From the main workspace, go to the Address Menu and select Insert Mail Merge.
  2. A Mail Merge dialog box will be prompted. Select the records to be printed. You can select all of the addresses or a mailing list. Addresses that are selected will have an "*" next to it.
  3. Click on the Select Fields Tab. Single click in the check boxes next to the fields that you want to print out.
  4. Press OK. Mail merge codes will now be in your document. When you print your document, the addresses information will print, not the codes.
