Font in Style Does Not Equal Font in Document

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 12:27 PM PDT

In Word 2013, I create a Table-Text style I use for the standard text in a table cell. It is based on (no style), Is Helvetica Neue, 11 pt, black. This font is also my default font. When I apply the style to text in a table, the font that displays is Arial 10. I only have trouble w/the style in the table.

 

I'm sure there's a simple solution to this, but after hours of searching I haven't found it. What do I need to change so the font that displays is Helvetica Neue 11? Thanks.

Spell check window won't remember its position

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 11:33 AM PDT

Here's a weird one:

I have a user who likes the "old fashioned" spell check; that is a modal window that hovers over her document as it spell checks.
Word 2013's spell check starts in the sidebar by default, but you can drag it out.
I thought if you dragged it out, and closed word, and reopened word it was suppose to remember its position. But it keeps starting in the sidebar.
Any idea why this would be? And how to fix it?


 

Display paragraph of text based on value selected in combo (Word 2010)

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 10:00 AM PDT

Hi,

Problem #1
I need to display a standard paragraph of text based on value selected in combo in Word 2010.

So, say there 3 possible values selectable in the combo (good, bad, ugly), when the user selects one of these a paragraph of text needs to be automatically displayed below which corresponds to the value selected.
So far I've figured out that I could bookmark the answers but I'm not sure how to reference them based on the value in the combo, or display them.

Problem #2
In a more complex variation on the above, I need to display more "standard text" based on the value of two combo boxes. For example:

Level: 1,2,3,4
Type: A,B,C

When the user selects one of the combinations (say Level 1 with Type A), it references the answer from a table in word containing all the combinations of answers and then displays the text below the combo.

I plan to hide this table at the end of the document and just not print it when I'm creating the final customer-facing document.

Can anyone help me with either of these please ?.

TIA

My Word 2010 is formatting endnotes ref (hidden) with footnote ref formatting !

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 09:59 AM PDT

I get the blue underline of the endnote number with the request to "replace direct formatting" and then the Endnotes Reference flips over to the Footnote Reference formatting! I should add that this is my fault since I did click on the "replace" before I realized the problem - so I have a mix of footnote/endnote formatting on the endnote numbers As Endnote Reference formatting is hidden I cannot correct manually, and as I saved the work I cannot undo without undoing the work itself.

 

This seems like it should be an easy fix (just change the formatting on the endnote number) but I cannot get to it.

 

The actual click onto the endnote works just fine (which is odd considering I am also using footnotes, although letters rather than numbers).

 

Any brilliants out there? I am 1/10th of the way through an extensive project!

Printer defaults in starter 2010

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 09:46 AM PDT

Hi

I am having a problem with Starter 2010 printer defaults. I tried to change them in File > Print > Printer Properties, changed some settings and chose 'always print with current settings.' Now there is a loading symbol coming up which won't go away. I've tried shutting the document and reopening and it is there every time I open any word document.

What do I do to get it to go away.

I've tried restarting the printer as well that didn't work

Is there a generic driver for my HP Color LaserJet CP3505N somewhere?

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 08:49 AM PDT

How can I work around this. I have HP Color LaserJet CP3505N. Otherwise functions and it does not look like HP will create drivers for this. I cant afford a new printer just becaue drivers aren't updated!

Deploying Word 2010 Macros in a Template with Ribbon Customisation

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 08:18 AM PDT

I would like to deploy Word 2010 macros to users in our department without requiring distribution by the IT department. From reading this forum I think I should be able to do this by adding the macros to a blank document and saving it as a macro enabled template (dotm) in the Word Startup directory.

 

To make these macros as easy as possible to run I would like to add an Icon to either the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) or the Home Ribbon. I can add an icon to either of these within Word but I cannot seem to get it to save and load with the template I created. I want to keep things simple and avoid having to explain to users in a series of instructions how to add the Icon to the QAT or Ribbon.

 

I have seen posts suggesting using a  *.officeUI  customisation tool.  I can't use this in my office environment, I have to use the in-built Word functionality.

 

My question is: Is it possible to add an icon to a ribbon or QAT using the functionality within Word and save it to a macro enabled template that loads on startup?

 

If it is possible can you explain how I should do this?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

E-mail mailmerge in word 2010

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 06:08 AM PDT

Dear All,

 

I am trying to do an email mailmerge in Word2010.

Unfortunately, I am running into an issue with making edits in the idividual documents.

 

If I go through preview, and add information in the individual documents, it shows up in all documents.

 

If I go to finish & merge and click edit individual documents, the 164 seperate documents (that need to be sent by email), turn into one large connected word document, without any breaks between emails.

 

My question, how can I edit the individual documents for my email in mailmerge?

 

Many thanks for your help. If you know the answer you are a champ, because my IT support team didn't know and Microsoft will charge me €350 for it.

 

Cheers,

Erik

paste large tables from Excel to Word

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 12:07 AM PDT

Dear All,

I am pasting tables created in Excel into Word (all 2007 version).  I want the tables to be static and appear exactly as they do in Excel, so I have taken to pasting these as pictures.  I use MS Picture Manager as an intermediary.  I highlight my table in Excel, copy and then paste as a bitmap into Picture Manager.  I then copy-paste from Pic Manag into Word.  I often paste into a Word-created table so I can make captions that move with the pasted table.

My problem is this: when I paste in smaller tables, then the resolution of the tables is very good, they look about like I had created them in Word by hand by typing in text; however, if I paste in a large table then the resolution goes down, the text in the tables looks rather different than the text in the main body typed directly into Word and also the columns sometimes get "scrunched" together and the table inexplicably looks different (e.g. sometimes what looks like nicely separated columns with all number represented are now crowded and a few significant digits at the end chopped off).

The solution I would like:  how can I copy and paste largish tables (let's say 20 columns and 20 rows) into Word from Excel and have them look very nice (no change in table layout and crisp resolution)?

Thanks, S

inserting a blank un numbered page after cover sheet

I want to insert a blank page after my cover page that is not numbered. I am trying to format a manuscript. I must have a cover sheet, one page summary of novel, outline and then the entire book. Only the book is to be numbered not the first three pages. Not sure how to do this. I find it amazing how difficult it is to do something that should not be difficult.

How remove text effects from paragraph style?

Posted: 08 Aug 2013 11:00 PM PDT

I played around with the Text Effects options for one of my paragraph styles, and now I find that any page that uses that paragraph style is printed to PDF in a manner such that the text cannot be properly selected.  Attempting to select consecutive words in a line highlights what looks like a column of text; see image below. Pages without such paragraphs generate PDF that behaves in the conventional manner.

Comparing what I see when I hover the cursor over the name of the "bad" paragraph style with what I see when I hover it over "good" paragraph styles (i.e., those that cause no problem with the PDF) suggest that the problem is that the "bad" style has the Text Effects "Text Outline" and "Text Fill".  I've tried to turn these effects off via the [Style Name]>Modify...>Format>Text Effects... dialog, but setting "Text Fill" to "No fill" and "Text Outline" to "No line" doesn't have any effect.

The only thing I haven't tried is deleting the style and recreating it from scratch, which I really don't want to do, because the style is numbered, and there are dozens of cross references in the document that refer to paragraphs of this style. 

I just want to remove the text effects from this paragraph style. How can I do that?

Controling Microsoft word 2010 numbering and auto formatting

Posted: 08 Aug 2013 08:59 PM PDT

I am trying to do a Masters level paper with my new computer on my new word 2010 and I get all this weird readjustments and guessing by the software that is simply wrong. It numbers wrong, indents wrong, it spaces wrong and I cannot adjust this the way I want. Format painter wont fix this, paragraph and page adjustments just make it worse and now the software wants to right justify all the time.  How can I turn this auto stuff off. I can do formatting myself. The formatter simply does NOT WORK. The software is off, something is not right here. I know this because my once expensive word 2003 did not do this possessed guessing as to what I want to do next. I'm almost ready to dust off my old word 2003 and use it in place of this software if I cannot get this corrected. Thanks for any thoughts.  -J.

Displaying WBS of another task in task name Microsoft Project

Displaying WBS of another task in task name Microsoft Project

Displaying WBS of another task in task name

Posted: 06 Oct 2004 03:22 AM PDT

I know this doesn't answer your question directly but perhaps a shift in
thinking about the project structure would render the problem moot. The
classic definition of a project's phases includes Initiation, Planning,
Execution, Control, and Closeout (though I personally tend to think of
Execution and Control to be two interwoven and interacting process streams
within the same phase of the project). Thus Project Initiation is not a
single activity, although crossing a go/no-go decision point would certainly
be shown in the plan as a single milestone task, but initiation itself is a
broad phase, represented by a summary task with potentially many additional
subtasks underneath it. I would say your presentation and the other
"aritfacts" are *components* of the Project Initiation phase as a whole, not
something that comes before it. Thus phase 1 in toto would be Project
Initiation. Early in the phase you're preparing the business case,
feasibility studies, early schedule and budget estimates, supporting
documents, etc. At the end of initiation there would be a milestone marking
the decision to proceed and you'd continue on to the Planning Phase where
you prepare the detailed project plan, including the schedule and working
budget and define the other management and controlling processes that will
be used in carrying out the project. When the plan and all its components
and supporting documentation is completed, you pass another milestone
marking the transition from project planning into the project execution
phase.

TOTAL COST COLUMN (IN TASK USAGE VIEW)

Posted: 05 Oct 2004 05:18 AM PDT

Hi John

Thanks for your answer. Not sure if it will help
though. Let me explain rather what we are trying to do
here. (Perhaps I shouldn't have asked about Overtime
Rate, because I don't think this field is going to help
me anyway)

In the task view the total cost column is giving me
answers for the standard rate x by hours worked in Rands
(we have worked out a cost rate and a charge out rate for
each resource and from that we want to work out %
profitability).

- Task usage view only shows total cost column (our
standard rate which is our cost rate x by number of hours
worked)
- I want to add in another column which will show me
total revenue (our charge out rate x by number of hours
worked) and then;
- I want to add in another column which will show me
Revenue less cost and then;
- I want to add in another column which will show me %
profit.

I can do all this using custom fields in the resource
sheet, but I want to see the cost at a task level not at
a resource level.

In the past we have been copying from Task usage sheet
into excel template which has all the formulas in it, but
it seems silly to do it that way when MS Project carrys
these fields and fields can be customised.

I'll go back and try your suggestions though. Please
investigate further for me.

Kind regards

Hi Ashley,

Inserting Projects into a master only provides a common view on tasks, it
does not consolidate resources.
To consolidate resources you need to connect the projects to a resource
pool.
Lookup the help on resource sharing or resource pools.

Leveling How To

Posted: 01 Oct 2004 09:13 PM PDT

See my other reply on to you on this topic. From a strictly computational
standpoint, perhaps your problem appears simple. Actually it is not simple
at all. From a business context standpoint it is a highly complex problem
that goes beyond the ability of any software to resolve. That's why humans
are still in the loop. Just because Bill is only being used 50% on task X
and isn't assigned anything else in the project that day and you sure could
stand to have that task done sooner, doesn't automatically mean you can
increase him to 100%. There are many other strategies possible in addition
to simply bumping up his assignment and only a human expert - that's you -
can know which of them is the optimum and which just aren't possible to do
in this specific case. Even finishing the project in the shortest possible
time isn't always the best business strategy. Would you take resources
away from a product rollout intended for this year's Christmas shopping
season in order to shorten the development time on a project creating a
product intended to be introduced for NEXT year's Christmas season and would
be done by next September without the increased resources anyway?

Hi Gareth, Frank,

The solution above is fine if you don't have to hop between windows too often. There's a
feature in MS Word and in most spreadsheets (inc. Calc) that lets you have two parts of one
document inside a split-window. Hence you can have your column headings / lead
paragraph / whatever at the top, see a big bar across the screen, and see Row 25,000 or
page 23 or whatever.

IMHO it's a good idea for anyone editing long documents. I *rarely* use it, but I do go loking
for it often enough to wonder why Writer doesn't do it yet.

[discuss] OOo ribbon

Posted: 19 Oct 2008 12:57 PM PDT

I was just saying that even rubbish Office suites like MS Office look better
- and therefor feel lighter to use - than OOo, and I think that because OOo
is so good, and easy to use, it should have the option of this ribbon (witch
is more logical, and easier to use - once the user has gotten used to it)
and definitely deserves better looks. for example: Mac have been
successfully because of there simplicity, but in the recent OSX they have
doubled there popularity because of looks!

[discuss] Booorrrring!! Not A Clip Board, Not only a clip board, it needs to be and do more.

Posted: 18 Oct 2008 07:35 PM PDT

Hi Rebecca

There is no need in name calling. The idea of a clipboard is great, but, I 


Are you suggesting that every program you use needs to add a clipboard with
24 clips? That should be a feature of the operating system, so your feature
request should probably go to that other company you mentioned! ;-)

In a mad co-incidence (I assume), the last message I read before yours was
also asking for this feature! Here is my response to them:

Hi Xhacker

I think OpenOffice should add a Clipboard like MSOffice.When I write a very 

A clipboard is a function of the operating system, not an application.
Otherwise every application would have to add the functionality separately,
and also find a way of co-operating so information can be passed from one
application to another.

Microsoft wrote a clipboard for Windows many years ago. Since then, they
have done nothing to improve it.

Rather than improve the Windows clipboard so that all applications will
benefit, they have created a second clipboard that only works inside their
own office suite. That seems crazy!

But others have done what Microsoft hasn't, and released utility programs
that extend the Windows clipboard with additional features, including the
ability to remember multiple clips. When using Windows, I normally use
Yankee Clipper III. It has the preview feature I guess you might be looking
for, and the ability to save some clips permanently as boilerplate. Find out
more here
http://www.intelexual.com/products/YC3/

I really hope I will see Clipboard in OOO. 

Then you'll have to hope that every other program you use adds one as well!
But then there would be no guarantee that information from one application's
clipboard would be transferred to another's. This scenario would get messy
very quickly.

And don't forget that OpenOffice.org runs on other operating systems too.
And not all of them have the same clipboard limitations as Windows, making
your suggestion redundant for some of us.

I understand your position and frustration, especially since we have no way
of knowing whether Microsoft will ever improve the Windows clipboard. I
recommend you explore some of the clipboard extenders available. Here is a
helpful link to get you started.

[discuss] fixing position of Table toolbar

Yes, but it seemed to me the actual problem is in fact that the text
jumps while entering a table. If the table toolbar is docked next to a
permanently docked toolbar there is no jump because the size of text
area does not change.

Hi Douglas,

Douglas St.Clair wrote:
 

Just because you have only one main executable does not mean that the
architecture is monolithic. I assume that you know the concept of shared
libraries and you should know that OOo uses it a lot.

Offering functionality in one process instead of in several processes
does not make a monolithic architecture. On the contrary: 5 single
executables for Calc, Writer, Draw/Impress, Math and Chart but without
any additional shared libraries would be much more "monolithic" than -
as now - one executable and a lot of shared libaries.

Another aspect: the part of OOo that is in soffice.bin would be the same
in all hypothetic "swriter.bin" etc. So why not share it at runtime? It
saves resources to do so and allows to integrate the applications much
better (easier handling of common settings etc.).

A little experiment: you can remove *all* application libraries (writer,
calc etc.) and OOo will still start. Nothing won't happen of course if
you click on the "new document" links in the start menu. Is that
monolithic? I don't think so.

You can read a little bit more about modularity here:

http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/what_can_openoffice_org_learn

One reason for the decision to have a common process for all OOo
applications was that the Linux platform did not have an equivalent to
the Windows OLE2 editing ("Inplace editing") and we had the requirement
to implement it. With separated processes (yes! we had them at that
time) this would require an inter-process communication technology with
a suitable language binding. At that time (mid 1990s) we didn't have UNO
that basically is able to provide that. But it cost us only a few weeks
to change our code from having separated executables to only one small
executable and so get rid of the requirement to have inter-process
communication.

In OOo 2.0 we finally re-implemented the Inplace Editing based on UNO.
This gave us the inter-process technology and so basically now we could
go back to separated executables. But - believe it or not - I see more
disadvantages than advantages to do so, the most prominent ones are
resource usage and quality of integration. I only see one advantage: a
crash would bring down only documents of one type, not all documents.
But how often does that happen? OTOH, the disadvanteges are felt
everytime, the most prominent ones are:

- more memory consumption
- starting more than one app takes more time in total
- less integration, less common settings etc.

So in short words: the observation that OOo uses only one executable
does not allow to conclude that it is "monolithic". OTOH indeed the
modularity of OOo could be better, but this can be seen only if you
study the source code. If you are interested, I recommend my
presentation from last year's OOoCon:

http://ooocon.kiberpipa.org/media/index-2007.html

(search for "Mathias Bauer" and you will find links to a video and the
slides).
 

All of this is true, but it is not related to the fact whether the
applications are started in one process or in different processes. It's
more a question of how good the code is organized in the shared
libraries and how modular they are.

Ciao,
Mathias

I believe its the other way around. A form modification requires the publish

DMSNAPIN error

Posted: 17 May 2004 02:58 AM PDT

This error is potentially caused by a number of issues, any one could be the cause

1. Integrated Windows authentication must be used for the authentication method on the Microsoft CRM Server machine for Microsoft CRM version 1.0. Digest authentication for Windows domain servers is not supported. You can check your settings in the following location: Administrative Tools | Internet Services Manager. You then right-click on the correct site (in most cases called Microsoft CRM Version 1.0) and select properties. Now click the directory security tab and select the edit button in the Anonymous access and authentication control section. Make sure that only the Integrated Windows authentication is checked.

2. Microsoft CRM was not installed to the default Web site on port 80

3. If you have installed Microsoft CRM 1.2 and the Microsoft CRM Web site is not named exactly "Microsoft CRM Version 1.2".

4. This occurs when there is a second Web site on the Microsoft CRM Server whose name begins with "Microsoft CRM". When Microsoft CRM Deployment Manager attempts to resolve the name of a single Web Server and resolves more than one Web site to publish changes to, it will fail and return the error.

Hope this help

Contact and Account Relationship

Posted: 17 May 2004 12:10 AM PDT

Thanks Dave !

I was thinking of creating a side tab and show all the contact related
accounts and their info in a view. It will be read only information.
The user will have to add all the accounts thru accounts form and have
the same primary contact. Do you see any issues with this design ?

Does the MSCRM SDK contain all the details needed to create a side tab
and link a new form to it to display the view ?

Thanks again for your help.

restoring CRM databases

Posted: 14 May 2004 08:26 AM PDT

To add, the procedure you mentioned should not cause any issues as long as
you've taken a proper backup. Once you've taken the backup and perform the
testing, you could follow the steps below that I've outlined. These steps
could be used even in the event of a SQL Server crash

In the event of a failure of a SQL Server computer, you will need to
restore databases from backup, and then re-associate
them with the Microsoft CRM organization. The following steps are required
to return Microsoft CRM to full functionality:
1. Install the operating system, ensuring that the computer running Windows
2000 Server or Windows Server 2003 is in
the same domain as the Microsoft CRM server(s). You should use the same
database name and disk structure. If you
must change either of these, you will need to take additional steps to
properly restore SQL Server databases and
replication. (For more information, see the restore command in the SQL
Server documentation, located at
msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/startsql/getstart_
4fht.asp.)
2. Install SQL Server.
3. If you have a valid backup of the master database, restore that backup.
(For more information, see "Restoring the
master Database from a Current Backup" in SQL Server Books Online, located
at
msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/adminsql/ad_bkprst
_4g4w.asp.)
4. Restore the msdb database.
5. Restore the Organization_name_MSCRMDistribution, Organization_name_MSCRM,
Organization_name_METABASE, and Organization_name_CRMCRYSTAL databases.
(For more information
about restoring databases, see the topics in SQL Server Books Online,
starting at
msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/howtosql/ht_7_back
pt_754p.asp.)
6. Use the Configure SQL option in Server Manager (part of Microsoft CRM
Deployment Manager) to re-associate the
database with the CRM organization. This will also restart replication.

Caution When using the Configure SQL option, do not select the Apply
changes to all servers in the deployment
option unless you know there to be no other Microsoft CRM deployments in
the domain. This setting will switch all
servers in the entire domain to use the SQL Server databases you have
selected.
If there is a problem restoring some of these databases, it is still
possible to recover from the situation. For example, if you
do not have a valid backup of the master database, you need to recreate the
SQLAccessGroup, SQLRepl, and Domain
Users (if required) logins in SQL Server Enterprise Manager by selecting
them from Active Directory. Give them database
access to the Organization_name_MSCRM, Organization_name_METABASE,
Organization_name_CRMCRYSTAL,
and the Organization_name_MSCRMDistribution databases you have restored. If
the msdb database is unavailable, you
can still recover the information in the Microsoft CRM databases. However,
you will not have a backup history, and you
will need to restore each database and each transaction log in turn.
You should also note that this scenario can be used with a worst-case
situation, that is, total failure of the SQL Server. In less
dramatic circumstances, for example the failure of a single disk, you may
only need to restore single databases to recover
the environment.
For more information about disaster recovery for SQL Server, see "Designing
a Backup and Restore Strategy" on the
MSDN Web site, located at
msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/adminsql/ad_bkprst

Clustered Exchange Servers and the Exchange Router

Posted: 13 May 2004 10:01 PM PDT

Update - Talked with Exchange and CRM support today and they basically said what was said here and by others, that clustered Exchange servers are not supported in this version but adding a gateway server in front of it will work. Of course this introduces a single point of failure which is why they had the clustered servers to begin with. At the end of the day, it was decided to turn off the creation of the GUID altogether since it seemed more palatable to the client than the other 'issues' with how email is tracked in CRM to begin with. (Not tracking replies of replies if done using Outlook since the custom outlook form is only used with new emails among other isssues). There's more to this story that's not suitable for print but I'll save that for another day ..

One work-round may be to set up another Exchange server as a front-end, an

Customizing CRM 1.2 Home Page

Posted: 13 May 2004 06:04 PM PDT

David,

I've spent about $30,000 in consulting fees to have CRM integration done.
What I got from c360 was more robust and a lot cheaper. Definitely worth
the money. There is some room to customize the settings within the c360
offerings, but very limited. For example, you cannot change which columns
appear. Nonetheless, it's worth it.

As far as I can figure theres some problem were it can only make one

makes all the proper folders and the problem goes away. I hope theres
a better solution for this because I need to install this on about 10

Removing the e-mail GUID in version 1.2

Posted: 13 May 2004 12:47 PM PDT

TechKnowledge
Steps to turn off the e-mail GUID after upgrading to Microsoft CRM 1.2
SUMMARY

A unique tracking number appears on the subject line of e-mail
messages composed in the Microsoft CRM system. This article describes the
steps you must take to turn off the e-mail GUID after upgrading to Microsoft
CRM 1.2.

MORE INFORMATION

In version 1.0, there is a hot fix available that adds a
MessageTagBehavior value in the registry on the Exchange Server where the
Microsoft CRM Exchange E-mail Router is installed. The hot fix allows a
Microsoft CRM Administrator to turn on or turn off the GUID in outgoing
e-mail messages. After you upgrade to Microsoft CRM 1.2, use the registry to
determine if any updates are necessary to turn off the e-mail GUID.

Important This article contains information about modifying the
registry. Before you modify the registry, make sure to back up the registry
and make sure that you understand how to restore the registry if a problem
occurs. For additional information about how to back up, restore, and edit
the registry, click the following link to view the article in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;256986

To check the registry value on the Exchange Server:

1. Click Start, click Run.

2. Type regedt32 in the Open: box.

3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM.

4. You should find a registry key with a ValueName: MessageTagBehavior

5. If this key does not exist, create the key using the following
values:

Value Type: DWORD key value
Value Name: MessageTagBehavior
Value data: 0

6. If the Value data is set to Null or 1, the tracking number will be
attached to the subject line of the e-mail messages. If the Value data is 0,
the tracking number is not attached to outgoing e-mails.

7. Stop and restart the Microsoft CRM Exchange Queue Service for the
new setting to take effect.

If the e-mail tracking is turned off (value data is set to 0), the
Microsoft CRM system will no longer generate the unique tracking number. In
addition, this results in the loss of the Microsoft CRM system's ability to
automatically track incoming e-mail.
