Sorry, I missed the part of not working with 7.05.03. I am still using the last version. I will wait to update after some of the bugs (like this one) are ironed out.

Jim, et all,

Under PREFERENCES > RPT/LAB

In the GREETINGS box I have
@@ %% 73 (no dashes as you show, the spacing between the marks can be adjusted to fit your label size for proper fit, for example, if the 73 runs off the end of the label you have to shorten the spacing)

Then when I print a label it will say:

PSE QSL    2007 CQWWDXCW   73

--------  OR  -------------

TNX QSL   2008 ARRLDXSSB  73

etc, etc, etc, depending on the GROUP number of the QSO and if the CNFM box is marked Y or N.

I have a different GROUP number assigned for each major contest I log. I work the contest using CTWin, use your instructions to convert CTWin to ADIF, then import the CTWin ADIF file to DX4WIN. Before doing so I must assign a new GROUP number for that contest that I am about to import and reset my PREFERENCE > QSO > GROUP window to that individual GROUP number. After doing the import all the QSO's just imported from that particular CTWin ADIF contest file will have that GROUP number assigned. After a successful contest log import I must go back to PREFERENCE > QSO > GROUP window and change the GROUP number back to what I use for everyday normal non contest QSO's. In my personal situation that is GROUP 100 (K7ACZ) and when I print a label from a QSO made under GROUP 100 the label will just say K7ACZ. Example:

TNX QSL    K7ACZ   73.

When I print labels I ALWAYS at the PRINT QSL LABEL window click on PRINT. Then when the REPORT SETUP Window pops up, at the DESTINATION box I select PREVIEW to see how the label will look before printing.

Hope this helps. I learned most of this from the Manual, help files, trial and error, and all the help and tips you have provided over the years.

Subject: [Dx4win] 7.05.03 not printing group names on labels?


I thought I would try what group names on labels look like. But I don't think it's working.

In my Rep/Lab preferences I have:

   %% - @@ - 73 de Jim AD1C

The help text says, "A %% (two percent characters) will be replaced by the group name that
corresponds to the group number for the QSO printed."

Yet when I print (preview) the labels, all I see is this:

   - Pse QSL - 73 de Jim AD1C

I know the QSOs have group numbers!

Can anyone else confirm this?  Did I miss a step?

73 - Jim AD1C
