[Dx4win] RE: Problem with Maximum QSOs Limited to 3 on a Custom Label

[Cliff Ahrens]

Steve, thanks for testing it.  It's not a "print group names" issue, because
I did not have that selected.  I must have something configured incorrectly.
Dick K7VC sent me his custom label file, which prints more than 3 labels
with no trouble.  I set up a new custom label with the exact same
configuration which works for Dick, and it still only prints 3 Q's per
label.  That made me think it was a printer configuration issue, but the
problem is present on both my inkjet and label printers.  At this point, I'm
not sure where to look, but I'll keep checking.  If I come up with a "fix"
I'll post it on the reflector.  Thanks again.

Hello Cliff,

I just tried it here by copying one of the very tall label formats to 
'custom1'.
I knew I had loads of CN8WW contacts from older contests so I did a search 
and found 22 of them.  Set the print flags and printed them.  I got 10 to a 
label!

One thing to remember, if you have the option of 'printing 'roup names' on 
the labels, it will only print QSO's belonging to the same group on the 
same label.  I tried it after invoking that option and only got max of 6 to 
a label (Worked them all bands in multiple contests.)

So, seems to be working here.
