It only seems to work in the Card itself although if you take ronriche's advice
thread807-736331
you could script the whole routine,
Like this:
Ctrl+A then the scripting program opens message boxes that let you enter the name and address (which it puts in the fields) and then the script continues by Alt+A then Alt+C then Down to the Date Field and Ctrl+D
