[Dxbase] QSL Card Design - Test for Previous Date?

[Joe Glockner]

Eric,

I do not know how this will turn out in this email - but, here
are the contents of @User01 (User Variable):

If (Mid$ (DATE,3,3)="JAN","01",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="FEB","02",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="MAR","03",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="APR","04",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="MAY","05",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="JUN","06",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="JUL","07",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="AUG","08",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="SEP","09",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="OCT","10",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="NOV","11",If (Mid$(DATE,3,3)="DEC","12"))))))))))))

Pse make sure that you copy all of the above as ONLY one-line of data.


Here are the contents of @User02 (User Variable):

Right$(DATE,4)+ at User01+Left$(DATE,2)


The above two User Variables are setup so that the DATE variable is
available to the Appearance Condition formula as a  YYYYMMDD  format.


THEN - on EACH of the OLD QTH info textboxes - make the Appearance
Condition (formula) read as follows:

@User02 < "20090821"

THEN - on EACH of the NEW QTH info textboes - make the Appearance
Condition (formula) read as:

@User02  > "20090820"


Save the QSL CARD file and you are ready..
