OK Guys, it is getting close to Halloween! I had tried several variations to try to get it to work. I even cleared = the queue and re-entered the QSLs. I thought probably there was a problem = with the importing process. It did the same thing.
Well, after your message I cleared the queue again, entered my call in = the log, added my call in QSL queue printed the label, pressed "yes" to = update the date and it worked! I have done a couple of more tests and they were successful! My computer is relatively new, and admittedly I am not very familiar = with the Windows XP operating system, but this process has always been a "no brainer" before. I think that I will shut the system down, open it up = and remove any little gremlins that I see hiding in there. Jack, if any say = they belong to you, "I'll box'em up and send them to you. :') Thanks for your help, Bill, W5VX -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] = On Behalf Of Jack Sent: Saturday, October 11, 2003 10:16 AM To: Bill; 'Malcolm Rothwell'; [email protected] Subject: Re: [DXBase] Populating the QSL Sent Column Bill, I can't really answer for what you are seeing. But, I did test this = here and see that it does work exactly as it should. After processing the = print job, the software does ask if you want to update the QSL sent and if you answer yes, it does do it correctly in our test. There must be = something you are overlooking but I'm not sure what it could be.

This works fine for me when I am responding to a big pile from the = bureau but... When I am operating and I work a station that I really want a = card from I usually just hit the label button to store the label in the queue = for printing later. Once every month or two I print these cards and send the out. In the past with DXBase 2002 and 2003, after printing out the labels a message would pop up and say, "Do you want to update the QSL date sent = field in the QSO records for the labels just printed?" I would click yes and today's date would be placed in the QSL sent field. This would = accurately reflect the date I sent the QSLs and not the date I worked the station. = With my new 2004 version, I click yes and nothing happens. I was wondering if this was setting I have missed or if maybe this is broken?

That should fix it 73's Mal G4KFT -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] = [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bill Sent: 11 October 2003 12:20 To: [email protected] Subject: [DXBase] Populating the QSL Sent Column After importing my log to DXB 2004, uneventfully, I decided to do my = QSLing for the month. I had to do a little modifying to the label but that went = ok too. I printed the labels and selected that I wanted DXBase to update = the QSL sent column. The labels printed fine but no update of the QSL sent column. I have done this many times with DXB 2003 without a problem. I hope this is nothing more than cockpit problems on my part, but I = didn't see anything in the help files.
