Create a client marketing memo in a batch

The Client Query Wizard provides a mechanism to output the list of clients directly to a form letter template created with memowriter for mass mailing.

The Client Query Wizard will prompt the user to select the form letter. After the letter is selected, the system will automatically merge client data and save a copy of the form letter to each matching client, and output the form letter to the printer.
