A client has asked me if this be done through Crystal Reports:
 
a report that would let us input the date of a title assignment to a particular person and that would generate an e mail to that person and alert to us when 3 days has passed or some other date or time that we input. (I know I used to use ACT for this kind of thing but it is really a person contact/sales software and is  a little bit of overkill for what we need.)
 
Thanks.

Found the solution!!  Works like a charm and the software developer was very helpful in getting me started and making suggestions for other uses.  He helped me set it up so that a .pdf report is "burst" to only send the pertinent parts of the Crystal Reports report to the e-mail recipient on a daily schedule.
 
I only scratched the surface with this first attempt.  Tons of other things can be done.  Check it out at:
