[SOLVED] reportcaster burst on email address (sort field)

Hi,
I have a report that is sorted by email address page-break repage and I would like to schedule it in reportcaster (i.e. the burst value isn't some other field that gets matched to an email address -- it is the email address). Do I have to create a dynamic distribution list to do this or is there an easier way? I have tried consulting the manuals, but they always assume I don't already have the email address in my report. I've used dynamic distribution lists in the past, but since I'm not bursting on anything else I'm not sure how to proceed.

Thanks for your help.


For the record, I am on 8.2.06.

I successfully tested this idea. Make the burst value and the e-mail value the same in the distribution list and then burst it with report caster.


Thank you for using Focal Point!
