Larry;
That is exactly what I need to do. I sent out a bunch of QSLs to state
side managers and wanted to see what didn't come back yet. Now these went
out with w/ SASEs with the lesser postage because they went out at the
beginning of the year. I want to get some idea how many are outstanding to
determine if I want to send a SASE w/ the correct postage....
After tinkering around a bit I was able to get the list I needed. It
looks like I have to set my filter for a number of things including CFNM to
'N', QSL date for on or before the date sent and QSL method to 'DIRECT'.

Carter,
No foot-in-mouth disease for you -- you did a fine job of answering Kurt's
question... _except_ I read a little more into his question. I'm assuming
he
is looking for all QSLs that have been mailed and have not received a
reply.
For this operation, he would perform all of the tasks you describe, plus
place an "N" in the "CNFM" box to request only those cards that have been
mailed but not yet confirmed.
