[DXBase] label designer, call won't print

2002年12月29日 17:37:01 -0600

Phil,
If, by chance, you "copied" one of the files that uses 
"Appearance Conditions" - that would answer the problem..
I myself have made many labels/QSL cards that use "TWO" CALL
fields (on top of each other) .. The one CALL field is used
for Callsigns that are "LESS than 7 characters" and uses the
FONT size of 12 .. the other CALL field is for Callsigns that
are "GREATER than 6 characters" and uses a FONT size of 10..
This way I could let the program make the decision as to which
CALL FIELD to USE ... The "conditional coding" for these two
CALL fields can be found by:
(1) Left-click on the one CALL field and then Right-click on
that CALL field -- when the menu comes up - choose 
Appearance Condition
In that you will see something like:
Len(CALL)>6
..... NOW ...
If you DO NOT want the selection of TWO Different CALL text boxes,
just DELETE one of them and then REMOVE the "Appearance Condition"
from that remaining CALL Text Box..
I hope that his helps Phil!
