I use WL for all daily logging using the DXpedition Mode Contest format.

What I have done for the past several years is export WL files as ADIF files 
and then import them into DX4WIN to create a master log.  I then produce QSL 
labels from the DX4WIN file. DX4WIN nicely merges various QSOs with the same 
station onto the same label(s).
