Ron:

This information is not correct.  All your instructions do is tell someone
how to print a list of the prefixes that were worked.  It does not print a
log file for submission.  To do that, you go to the File menu and then
select
"save as" and then choose "File version of print chronological".  Then you
will have a text file that should be renamed yourcall.txt.

I hope the new version of Writelog has a command to just "write all" contest
files.  The summary sheet should also be in ascii text format so that it
can be submitted electronically.  The .rtf version is real pretty, but only
good for sending a hard copy through the mail.
