[Dxbase] PRINTING ON QSL CARDS??

[Ron Stordahl N5IN]

Ilya, 4Z1UF

All these label designs run in DXBase2007.  Just go, on the top line, to 
Output>User Designed Labels... and follow along.  You will be given a drop down 
list where you can select either 'labels' or 'cards' depending upon which boxes 
you check in the first window that comes up.  No separate program is required.  
It will take some trial runs to understand this and to make good choices of all 
the available formats.

Ron, N5IN

Ron,
Thanks to your e-mail I discovered the labels folder...I never tried to
access it directly. Now I see that there are many QSL projects, such as
CardBack_9Q_Black_centered.crd, CardBack_9Q_Black_centered.crv etc.  Please
advise what is the program that opens these extensions?
