Stan,
I was talking about the Label SIGNATURE -- the variable MYNAME
comes from the
Tools / Option / Personal Options / Name
So -- check that textbox .....

Joe,
Obviously, my mental model for how this works is wrong. I thought that when
you clicked on qso's to add them to the labels list that an index of some
kind for those q's was created and that when you then went into the label
output and specified a particular label layout file that the program then
went and got all of the calls from your q's list and generated the label
outputs, including picking up variables such as "mycall," "myname," etc.
Apparently, it is generating everything to go on the label, including the
variables, before I even select which label layout file I am going to use.
Maybe I can convert a label layout file so that it does not include the name
at all and hence avoid having to manually change 120 labels.
Thanks,
Stan, W4AG

Subject: Re: [Dxbase] Name on qsl labels
Tools / Options / User Options (then the Labels TAB) ..
Label Signature ..
Change that to what you want ...
BUT - remember that anything that is ALREADY in the labels pending database
is carved-in-stone -- so, you will HAVE TO manually change the signature on
each of those qsos..

Sorry for asking a question that gets asked every few months, but
where do I change the default name for printing labels from "Jack" to
my name. I guess you're changing the "myname" variable, but I can't
find anything in the help about where to do that.
Thanks,
Stan, W4AG
