What I do is keep a separate physical logbook. I run a printout from 
a report that Joe has made available which correlates addresses with 
callsigns/managers. I write beside each one my method, then 3-hole 
punch each sheet and I keep them all in a binder. Works pretty well 
but it's a 2-step lookup.

Within DX Base there is the QSL VIA field. You choices there are 
None, Bureau, Direct, Direct $$, Manager, Other, Mrg-Buro, Manager 
$$. To be honest, I never use that function becuase I usually send 
out batches of cards and some go one way, some go another, and that's 
just a lot of clicking.



Cheers,

Peter,
