[ct-user] RE: Printing QSL9 labels in Avery 5160 format?

[Ron Notarius]

     Jim,
     
     I'd import the data into a real database & manipulate the 
     data from there.
     
     I import my CT data into my logs, which I keep in a dBase IV 
     (soon to be Visual dBase 5.5) system I half wrote (I still 
     have to write the other half).  I can then extract the data 
     I want for whatever stations I need to send cards to, sort, 
     and then print the labels using a report format to print 
     multiple QSO's on a lablel.  It's fairly easy & straight 
     forward -- it's harder to type & explain than to do.
     
     CT's a very nice program for contests, but for manipulating 
     mailing lables, it's a very nice program for contests.  This 
     is not a knock by any means!  But maybe we expect too much 
     from the software.
     
     IMHO.  I could be wrong.

Just to be a little more clear...
     
I have a perfectly good logging program (DX4WIN) which prints labels 
in the desired format.  I can even print QSLs from the original 
contest log (Writelog).  But I want to use QSL9 because of 2 features:
     
1.  Only makes labels for stations worked on a new band or mode.  I
    can already use DX4WIN (or Writelog for that matter) to generate 
    labels for ALL the QSOs, but that's NOT what I want.
     
2.  Multiple QSOs on a single label.  Again, I can already generate
    labels that are one per QSO, using either DX4WIN or Writelog.
     
So I want to take the .LAB file I created using QSL9 (this is the 3rd 
log, so many stations have already been worked and QSLed) and print it 
on Avery 5160 labels.  Ken said to try the "-THREEUP" switch but that 
didn't do anything different using the latest QSL9 from the web site.
