There already are some columns you could use right now - one is the User1 or User2 (Checkmark) -- or -- Special1 or Special2 (Narrative fill-in) .. and, all of the above are already "in" the selection wizard.

I use the DYMO for address labels and have not ever found a way to get the QSL info out for a single label print. I hate to waste the label sheets when I just need a few labels done.

In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I had considered those Joe, but they work just the opposite of what I need. I need to be able to set a flag which will cause the flagged record to be excluded from wizard output. Those flags will cause the record to be included (and exclude anything which is not flagged). The idea is that the usual case would be where I wanted wizard output excluding these Q's, because I am tired of re-examining these particular Q's periodically. Yet I don't want to delete these Q's. And if a card or LoTW does come in from my past efforts I would like the Q to be automatically be removed from the 'suspended' state.

Noticed when I have DXbase working, that the freq does not show or the band. When I click on the DX station coming through on the internet, the freq will not change. When I use Writelog, the freq will be noted. So, I click on the Microham router first and the freq is listed on the port tab. Then I start DxBase and the freq is not noted. The Com ports are the same which is Com 3. So any suggestion as to what is missing in DxBase ? Mike
