I'd like to set up a query that pulls a list of contacts and their parent
customer's address information. Logically this is so I could send a mailing
out to all employees of certain accounts but send it to the account's mailing
address, not the address of the contact.

Is this possible?

The reason I need to do this is because we store the contact's *personal*
address in their record and the company address in the parent customer's
record. If it is not possible to do the above, how are other people handling
this situation? Duplicating the account address in the contact's record and
storing the personal address under more addresses?

Hi Chris,
Yes, it is possible. You need to write a new SRS Report for this purpose.
Remember to use only Filtered Views during the development of Report.

You may contact me directly at my email address if you need any help in this
regard.
