First, thank you to all the people who responded to my 2 emails. Obviously,
I didn't understand what I wanted to do well enough to express it in the
notes.
Here is what I wanted to do:
1 - I have several QSL cards to submit for DXCC for credit.
2 - I want to use a Card Checker, but didn't want to enter the QSL data by
hand like I did last time. It can lead to data entry errors.
3 - The Online DXCC articles described a process to use an AFIF file export
from a logging program, such as DXBase.
4 - My concern was the ADIF file doesn't produce a report to give to the
Checker. Plus the Checker would send the DXCC Desk a report that someone
there would have to hand enter. Thus, a chance for more errors.
5 - I couldn't see how to work around this problem until Mike, ND4V, comes
to rescue!!!.
Please read Mike's (ND4V) email reprinted below. What I missed is that with
the ADIF import, you can print the online form with the QSL Cards in the
same order as the ADIF file to give to the Card Checker. Problem solved.
