[Dxbase] Labels

[Joseph Glockner]

Bob,

First - I didn't see what version of DXbase you are running right now??

So, I will simply generalize my comments -- here are my answers to
your questions:

1 - Correct - the program knows which labels are printed.. If you
KNOW that you have printed ALL of your Group #2 and you want to
answer NO to deleting those Group #2 labels at that time -- you can
easily later on - go to Output/ Empty Labels / and specify Group #2 ..

2 - There of course is a way to view the labels pending database via
Tools / Database Access / Labels / QSO labels TAB ... AND, there is
also a STANDARD REPORT under

Output / Standard Reports / Database Topics / Label Topics /
with the filename of

qsolabel.rpt


That is only the methods you could use to VIEW the contents of the
Labels Pending database -- as far as a strict "crosscheck" report
that would bang together your qso log against your labels pending
database -- nada!  That I know of ..

BUT, I can make you one (if you like??) ???


3 - You do not need to look at the label pending database using
ACCESS (though you can) - because you can view the database straight
away within DXbase itself .. or use the report I talked about in #2
above ... I would strongly recommend simply viewing the pending
database from within DXbase...




And - "if" you will tell me whether you want to have me make a QUICK
report for you  --  it will be of the Standard Report variety --- that
report "will"  show you the QSO's from your logbook (with the qso sent
date) that are equal to the qsos you have in your labels pending
database..


Just let me know your wishes Bob!
