Using stored procedures to retrieve Synergetic data
Stored procedures can be used to return Synergetic data to Microsoft Word to create mail merge
letters. The procedures also update Synergetic fields so that history is kept about what has been
mailed when.
For details of stored procedures, see Stored procedures (on page 72).
