In your design is is important that the variable you set for 'your' call be 
OPRCALL.  That way the call shown will be 'Opr Call' in your log as opposed to 
the call under which you registered DXBase2007.  Often these will be the same, 
but I discovered when I got my new vanity call that this is essential.  You want 
the label to reflect the call you were using at the time of the Q.

Rich,

When you 'expand the space' do you mean the variable "CALL" (Object) box?
There is no doubt that some radio calls are longish. I suggest using the
grab points around the "CALL" object box and make them much longer then you
might expect. Next use the 'center justification' option for the "CALL"
text.  Look at the Options|Arrange make sure it is positioned to the front.
Now center the "CALL" object box on the card where you wish to print you
will be OK. That way short calls or long calls always end up smack-dab where
you want them and over top of any other objects you may have on the card.

Hello:
I am using Dxbase 2007 and I am printing QSL cards. I've noticed one little
problem.
When I am printing qsl's in the space where it say's "To Radio", If I put in
a call like WØAAA, it prints it , no problem. If I put in a call like
"PJ6/W1AAA", it will not print it. I even expanded the space on the card
where this is going to print but that doesn't help. 
Thanks
