[Dxbase] User Designed List 'printer' failure

[Joe WA6AXE]

Ron,

I "just" finished doing an EXPORT of the QSOs in my WIZARD DB ... I used the same steps that you
took -- at the JUST AFTER 99% -- a NEW pop-up window came up and said PSE WAIT ... and the
normal GREEN (I am working) scrolling line rolled and rolled -- and I only had about 615 entries
in my WIZARD DB .. BUT, it took approx 45 seconds to COMPLETE (and it did complete all ok)  the
RUN ... so, if you wizard db contained a LOT of data .. that portion of the (I'm running as fast as
I can  Green Bar_ program WILL take a bit of time ...  but, again -- mine completed ALL OK ..

I am using ver 1.09 at this time ...
