Hi guys, I'm doing something dumb but I can't see it. The basic premise is: sql search of orders sorted by customer set g_customer_id to '' loop through resultset if customer_id not same as last record's customer_id (g_customer_id)
    get customer email details
    set up message header if this is the first record for a customer
    set item details
else
    set item details
    set g_customer_id to customer_id
endif send email end loop
Should not be line "set g_customer_id to customer_id" be in the "if" part? It's certainly useless in the "else" part as it's already equal to customer_id ;)
The problem is that as a sample I have two records from one demo customer (me) and I can only get my email to handle one record - either sending separate records for each record or one email covering the last record only Its as if I should have another inner loop Any tips MTIA George
