[Dxbase] QSL printing problem

Fri Jun 18 23:07:15 EDT 2010

I just found the problem (or anyway it cured the problem)
I have 3 instances of Windows and also 3 instances of DXBase 2007.
on this computer and I decided to try and load the .crd
file from another on of the instances on another drive and when I went to
select the .crd
file from the other drive I found that, that was what I was already doing,
so I switched
the selection to the labels folder on C: instead of G: and all works fine
now.
Thanks to all for suggestions

Tony,
Under tools do check the card database to see if the cards to be printed are
listed, but to be honest I sort of remember if the database is empty you get
a different error from the date error. Also check the column (may be hidden)
in your log to see if the cards have been 'sent/printed' already. 
You may also wish to add another card to your list to be printed for a test.
I am sending email from my home office and not the shack, but will check
later this weekend to see if I can duplicate your error, unless someone else
can comment.
Eric..

 Ok, this got it going to the correct printer BUT I still can't print ANY of
the QSL designs directly to PREVIEW.
It just bypasses the PREVIEW and goes to the message asking me If I want the
set the QSL date sent to today's date.

Tony,
Go into QSL card design in DXB for the template you use and change the
printer to your new one and save the changes.

I have a problem printing QSLs.
I have a new printer (Lexmark All-in-one P705), every time I try to print
QSLs (I use the DuckyQSL.crd) the program comes up with my old printer
selected (which was also a Lexmark) then I click on "Change" then "Select"
and select my new printer and click on OK then back to the original printing
screen where I have "Print directly to "Preview"" and I click "Start" and
the only thing that happens is a message is displayed wanting to know if I
want to save the QSL date sent. I click "NO" and that is all it does. If I
tell it to print directly to the printer then it prints ok but the next time
I go to print some QSLs I have to go through the printer selection all over
again.
This is DXB2007
OS is Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.
My old printer is still installed and hooked up but the new printer is
selected as default in Windows devices and printers.

Any help?
