Print a Letter to Multiply Contacts Using an AP

We have just started using GM 7.0 It is Sequal (sp?) based. Our database is currently less than 25 records, of that 50% our the basic install contact records. (We are still in the testing mode.) I've created some dummy records.

I created a very simple AP. The AP is just to print a letter. I attach it to 3 contact records, then execute the AP. Word opens, I'm asked if I want to link the Contact Record. I select Yes. The document opens with the correct Contact information and prints and Word minimizes. The Process monitor is open and GM sits for a minute or longer. Then I'm prompted again about if I want to link the Contact Record. I select Yes, Word opens witht he next contact record and it prints, etc.

For the GM AP to print out one letter for 3 contacts it takes about 5 minutes from start to finish. Is this the nature of GM on sequal(sp?) or is there something I'm doing wrong?

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Geoff
