[LOGic] multiple QSL cards/reports

Richard,

I couldn't -- so I modified one of the stock reports (Octavia I think) to
print one-off cards on 3.5" x 5.5" card stock using my printer's (optional)
"card caddy" media tray. (HP OfficeJet 7210) Works... OK, sorta. The HP card
caddy really doesn't feed reliably, and one must manually baby-sit it and
angle the cards ... just SO ... to get it to feed. So not an ideal solution.

There is probably a programmatic solution for doing this on 4-plex stock as
you desire, but unless one is a FoxPro guru, one will probably never figure
it out without assistance. And I am certainly not one. :-)

  Subject: [LOGic] multiple QSL cards/reports


  Hi,

  I have two different QSL cards I need to print regularly.  One for my
callsign and one for my club station.  I typically print one at a time using
a custom report (#1) for my callsign and then I print the second custom
report (#2).  I print onto card stock 4 QSLs at a time.



  I am looking for a way to print both at the same time where LOGic could
automatically print the QSLs for my callsign using report #1 and at the same
time include the second callsign using report #2.  This would save a lot of
time in the long run and greatly reduce wasting cardstock when I don't
completely fill the cardstock with 4 QSLs.



  I have found a way to automatically do this all using the operator command
in the report but this does not meet my needs as I want to change the
graphics I am printing using one graphic for one callsign and another
graphic for the second callsign as well as changing other demographic
information uniquie to each callsign.



  Can anyone think of an easy way to print both reports at the same time
using some kind of batch process or some other way?

  Thanks much.
