We download a file of students from our Image database into EXCEL and from this file send emails. Many of these emails are rejected for bad addresses. We are trying to find a cost and time-efficient way of deleting the addresses from the database. Is there a way to have rejected addresses feed into a file? I was told that you can purchase software for this task, but that it is very expensive. At present they are printing the returned ones, using a "find" command in the EXCEL file, coding them to be deleted in the EXCEL file, and then looking them up on a screen that accesses the IMAGE database in order to delete them. For various reasons, we need to find a better way. I The EXCEL file allows only 1 person at a time, and the data entry people are not accustomed to EXCEL. They are more comfortable with their usual screens which access the Image database. I explained that I could transfer the EXCEL file to the HP, and automatically delete the records from the database. But they've asked for a screen on which to look them up using just the email address, which isn't a key. And they'd like to be able to use only part of the email address if possible. Presently we only have key lookups on our screens, and I'm not sure how to do this. If I could just get the rejected email addresses in a file, I'd be able to automate the solution entirely. Anyone have any ideas or knowledge of resources for this issue?
