There are really two parts to this answer. If you go to User Options and select labels, you will see that you can Special Characters to each group. Say you Enter a $ into the Direct$ box and a M into the Manager box.
Now you log a DX station you wish to qsl. Go to the QSL Via Column and select the appropriate means of qsling. Direct$ is self explanatory, you wish to qsl to the station and supply a GS or IRC for return postage. A Manager would mean you are qsling via the DX stations Manager. now the second part. When you go to print the qsl's, you will see a box for Group, enter a M into that box and DXB will select all the qsl's you marked for printing that had a Manager as the route selected. The various QSL Via boxes will accept any character, UPPER CASE letter, and any single digit number. I make use of this for dxpeditions. The recent KH3D dxpedition to Johnston Is had my qso's marked with a 'M'. When I printed the qsl labels, I selected D as the Group and was able to print all the qso's marked with a M. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Shelton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 9:35 PM Subject: [DXBase] QSL Via...
