Steve,

Hit F5 a couple of times to open the log entry window until the QSL lines
are showing.  For any QSOs that I would like to mark Y for label but hold
for printing later, I change the Method box to either Direct, $$$ or Other
-- something other than Buro.  For all bureau cards, I have preferences
setup so that when I hit F2 to show the QSO Confirmed and then enter a Y in
the Label field, it also automatically keeps the Method set to Buro.  Then
we you get ready to print Bureau cards only, make sure that you select
Bureau in the Method box in the upper Right of the Print QSL Labels window.
This should print out all of your bureau cards in order without printing any
other QSOs marked with any other Method selections.  Check your Preferences
setup by going to File, Preferences and F2 Key tab.  It works very well once
you get used to it.

73,

Dave, N4QS

I've got a pile of cards to answer with bureau cards from me.  The usual 
type, mostly Japan and probably none help my DXCC standings.   I would like 
to enter them in my logging program with a Y in the QSL label box so the
labels will print.  But I also have many legitimate contacts that I needs
cards from already marked in the program.  I usually batch sending out cards
every month or two depending on the quantity and importance to me.

So how do I mark the bureau cards for labels yet not mix them up with the
more important cards I have on hold in the program?
