Jim & Dick: Thanks for your response on Printing Labels. I discovered the Print Labels under the View Window in the Contest module earlier and was wondering if the same option was available in the Daily Log module which is what I use. I get a lot of QSL Cards via the Bureau (some two yrs old or more) from Stations I worked in the past. It would be nice for a quick way to edit my log and go right to that QSO and print a RST report on a Label to affix to my QSL Card going back via the Bureau. Also the ability to print the home address on a label for Cards received directly would be a nice addition to your already Great program. I know you don't supply a Foreign Call database, but if you could provide a screen that the end-user could type out the mailing address and WIN10-10 could print an address label from that would be helpful to those of us whose handwriting skills are wanting. So, basically, my needs are for a Label Printing option for RST reports & Address Labels for my QSL Card returns for Stations I worked in the past. I am also sending this to the list with your response as there may be others on the list who QSL via the Bureaus and Direct and may be interested. Just food for thought in your already busy schedule. Thanks again for a Great Program and your continued support. And Dick, I miss your Tips - Wha Hoppen!!! Best 73 K2BIL Bill Bill: When in the contest mode with a contest log loaded, go to the View Menu, then Contest and choose Log Full Screen + Print Labels. There is a help file on that page. The label printout routine is designed for a 3x10 inkjet label sheet, but only prints the first 2 columns. If you need more then tag 10 more and turn the label sheet around and print the other 10 blank labels. Don't get confused and print on top of the ones you already printed. I wrote this routine about 3 years ago and have not used it since testing. Several of the Win1010 users have used it. It is not optimized for getting maximum use out of a page of labels, but if you play around with it, it should give you the labels you need. It does have some adjustment on the top and side spacing. It gets the address info from the FCC files. Hope this helps. 73, Jim - K4HAV
