DannyK89 I am creating an email template. I would like the email template to show the first name of a contact attached to a custom object I build. I have tried this: {!Object__c.Contact__c.FirstName} but it shows up as a blank on the email. Is it possible to show just the first name of the contact related to the custom object. Thank.
I tried that and it didn't work for me.
I have decided to go with a visualforce email template. I was able to get what I needed that way. Thanks for the help.

It might work if you just do {!Contact__c.FirstName}.
If not, one workaround is to make a formula field on the custom object (Contact__r.FirstName), but leave it off the page layout and only use it in your template.
