mlepitt- If you take a look at the standard invoice screen and click Print Preview does it come up as it should? Can you post a screen shot of how it comes up? Or email me a screenshot along with the file. -Michael

mlepitt- We use google apps here in the office for our outgoing server we use smtp.gmail.com, I tired this using my email(m.melo@methodintegration.com) and my password(SuperComplexSecretPassword) for the Send Email action and it worked. -Michael

I added a Drop Down field that sources an existing Transaction table and when you select the Transactions, it only shows RecordID and that means nothing to me, I need the RefNumber.  I found how to add it in the search from the drop down, but once selected, you only see the internal ID.  Any idea how I can work around this ...

 Thank you, I figured it out just a few minutes ago, I didn't realize I didnt' have to fill in those fields.  But, in some cases I would like it to come from a generic email address (customerservice@mydomain.com) so this will still be a problem for those instances.

One thing to note though is that the text color will probably only work with the read only fields and not field ...

melpitt- [quote user="mlepitt"] It seems that since I have to specify a user, password and server it won't use the user email information instead.[/quote] Are you trying to set different default email settings for each of your users? If so when you edit a user(Customize > Users) in Step 2 of 10 you can uncheck Use default email ...

Hi - I wasn't sure which contact posted this so I wanted to update regardless to say that we resolved this issue via email :) thanks! -Wayne

Ideally I would like to shade the columns so that people who enter data can quickly distinguish the fields that require entry and the fields that don't.  I've already set the calculated fields to read only.  Changing the color of the text would be better than nothing.  Let me know when it's working again.

 I am having an issue with the same thing described, but I don't understand the solution.  It seems that since I have to specify a user, password and server it won't use the user email information instead.  So, if I have to plug in the stuff manually to the Send Email Action, there is no option to check-mark SSL, which I ...
