 Hi Elizabeth, We looked into this and it appears as though it is a Microsoft Outlook issue. Please try out this possible solution, let us know if it works for you - http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/microsoft-outlook-tnef.html If that doesn't work then we'll have to do some further digging. Keep me posted.

Hi there Two more question for you. 1. Purchase Order VAT (Sales Tax) We use Quickbooks Purchase Orders extensively - and I've just tried to create one from Method and there appears to be no way to add UK VAT (sales tax) onto the Purchase Order.

Hi!  I am creating a new screen from a table that only has 3 fields.  One of those fields will be edited OFTEN for each record.  I am trying to create the screen to have a grid that shows the 3 fields, and allows the user to edit the 'evolving' field within the grid. Is this possible? Thanks for you input!  

The answer to the email issue is this: With method the email entry on settings is not the same as your email settings on outlook You just need any email smtp server - I used a gmail address This is used to send the email.

I was able to install the Method Outlook Plug-In 2.1.29 without any issues (I use Outlook 2007 and Firefox/3.6.3). It works well, however, I've been told by some of my email receipients that they are now receiving my attachments as a proprietary Microsoft formatted "winmail.dat" file instead of as a pdf. The attachments are primarily ...

 Hey Bill, Just a quick addition, if you are currently not using the "Ship To" portion of the address section, you can manually fill this in with the Job Location information. If you are using those fields already, then you would need to customize the screen with new fields.

 Hey Bill, It sounds like you want to add a few more fields to display the address of the job site. To do this add some fields to the Estimates Table and then customize your Estimates Screen to include those new fields. You should check out our webinar on Tables & Fields for more help. Let us know how it goes!
