Dates Lists

 

To print a report containing names and dates, select the Dates item on the Output Forms combo box on the Print Control page of the Print Names dialog.

There are two additional items of setup information required to print a name and date list:

Date To Print. Select from the drop-down list the specific date that you want to have printed along with the name. This is a separate selection from choosing a date as the criteria for a list on the Selection page. For example, you may wish to print an anniversary list for those names who are between 60 and 70 years of age. Here you are selecting which date will be printed along with the name.

Date Format. Click on the format for the list. Remember that some people are not comfortable having their year of birth published.

Check the Mask Names with Blank Dates check box if you do not wish a name to be printed unless they have a date saved in the date field selected for printing.

Notes on Sorting

By changing the value in the Sort Order combo, you can have CMD print names either in alpha order or Date order. Do not print a date list in Zip Code order.

When printing the Full Date, the sort will be by year, month, and then day.When printing Day Only, the day will be sorted.

When printing Month/Day or Day/Month, the list will be sorted by month first then day.
