[Dxbase] QSL label problem in Win 8

Hi All

I was trying to print some QSL labels today on my "new" shack computer 
which is running Windows 8.1

The labels failed to print, or even open

Investigating I opened them in the label designer.  I got messages about 
unknown variables

The labels are "3 QSO" labels

It seems in Win 8 the second and third row variables like DATE2, DATE3, 
TIME2, TIME3 etc. have "disappeared" somehow?

I have tried two Win 8.1 computers

Reverting to my Win 7 desktop which just a arrived back from A6 all is 
well and all the variables are shown in the list

Any one have any ideas how to get the labels working under Win 8 please?
