Adding Text

We have customized an invoice template in our QB2000 and have been using it for several years. All this time it's been a little disconcerting that we are not able to include a contact telephone number or email address along with Company Name and Address. Every so often I go back to the Layout Designer and search for a way to add such. Either I'm just not smart enough to figure this out or such is simply not an option. Would anybody know if additional information can be added to Company Name and Address? All ideas and comments will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, K.

Additional fields for this info have been added in more recent versions (2004, 2005)

In earlier versions you have 2 alternative work-arounds:

- Add the info in another line in your Company Address. This is simple, but looks cheap and may affect other documents where it may be undesirable.

- Use other Fields in the template that you're not already using, such as PO #, Rep, FOB. Or add a Custom Field. But in either case use the Field Title, not the field value. For example I changed the title of FOB to "tel: xxx-xxx-xxxx".

Try going to where your company information is kept, re arrange it. That is what I did. I also added some information such as email & Fed ID number in the footnote section. I have a newer version so I can add text fields and don't remember if 2000 does that or not.

Intelligence has absolutely nothing to do with it. Some people simply have limited talent and or training when it come to matters such as this. This is why professional consultants are around.

Would anybody know if additional information can

How about this:

Design a logo, which includes your full postal address, telephone & fax numbers, and web address in a paint program which can save files as bitmaps, .GIF, .JPG or .TIFF files (scalable bitmaps). Crop the logo to a manageable size. Select NOT to include company info and import your "all in one" logo to use as your "logo" file.

Problem solved.

Yep. That was my solution. It certainly improves the look of the basic invoice as well.

Turn all that stuff off.

Design your own form in Publisher or other graphics program.

Print a bunch of these "blank" invoices. Use colors, logos, whatever.

Use paper from this stack as a "pre-printed" form when you need to print an invoice.

In out case, we've printed a bunch of "forms" on our color laser printer, then, when an invoice is needed from QB, we feed them into our ink-jet.

Don't rush, it hasn't been that important to you for several years, why ruin a holiday weekend.
