Hi there Everyone! I am a very new Lotus user. I have Lotus Notes R5 installed on my computer with no Domino Designer. I have set an agent which sends a text to a recipent. My problem is the following:

In my monthly mail I allways ask a specific data about a previous month, so if I write the letter in february it looks like this:

"Dear XXX,

Please send me your statistical data for January.

Thanky you."

My problem is that for now I have a static text set in the agent (i wrote previous month). How can I make the agent to send the mail with the real name of the previous month (january, february, march and so on)? I have thought that I make a word document (which updates the name of previous month and the agent with the help of vba) and the lotus agent will grab the text from the word file and paste it in the body of the message. Can that be done? Or there is an easier way? I do not have Domino Designer.
Thank you very much for your help in advance!

 
Does your agent run scheduled, or do you invoke it manually ?

I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.
