Ami Post
An automated city and province name generator.
This product will save you a substantial amount of time when
typing addresses. The average town name is about 12 characters
long. Include a comma, two spaces (as required by Canada Post)
and the province two letter code, and that is 17 characters. All
this can be achieved with one click of the mouse.
When you wish to type an address all you need to do is type the
Name, Company and Street. Then click on the icon for automated
city. It looks like an envelope with the Postal Code and City
highlighted.
A message box will appear with a request for the postal code.
Type in the postal code (which you will have to do anyway), in
upper or lower case, and not only will the postal code print,
but before it the city and province code will also print. All
this automatically with the click of one mouse button.
Installation instructions.

Ami Pro macros.

icon.)

11. Whenever you wish to type an address, on an envelope or letter
or anywhere, just postion the cursor to the City position then
click on the icon. After the city has been generated you can
edit it like any other text. This will speed up address input
tremendously.
