This button, if pasted into your Address stack and modified properly, will open your word processing program to a document that has your name and address, the date, the recipient's name and address, and the words "Dear" already printed at the top.
You need a hard disk to make it work properly, and you must modify the script to make it fit your name and address and also to make it open your particular word processing program.
