Franki,

My mistake - - I thought you were talking about QS_O_ date.

I experimented with QS_L_ date in my version of 5.03, and my version of
6.02. Both versions behave the same on my computer. In both versions, if I
create a filter and enter a QSL date, I get all QSLs sent since that date.

To accomplish what you want, you could:
    - Create the filter
    - Select <W>indow, <L>ogfile
    - Right-click in the log file, and select <W>rite to file. This will
create a CSV file of all the records
    - Open the CSV file with Excel, and then right-click and sort in the QSL
date column. You will then have a spreadsheet with all QSLs sent since the
date you specified, and sorted in date order.
