I did not present the whole picture when I made my comments this morning. 
Actually, I take that back, all I said was:

"I will tell you that if you send QSL cards to ARRL, they don't even look 
at the
printed submission form", which is generally true.  You backed this up with 
your own experience.  I think this is a case of two mutually-exclusive 
experiences colliding (each only presenting half the picture and not 
believing the other half).

However, as many have pointed out, DX4WIN can't summon the powers of Carnac 
to determine whether all the QSOs are on the same QSL or not.  I offered a 
solution (save the list and sort it yourself).  I guess he didn't like it.

Once software can think on its own, we're all doomed!
