Preparing files for printing with use mail merge method

Preparing files for print by mail merge method consists in sorting files.

Sorting the file to make a file by the so-called print queue, which then can be used to do print QSL cards by mail merge method . Sorting can be done in three ways:

1.	Sort by DXCC list number in the file DXCC.lst containing data on entites by the official ARRL DXCC List

2.	Sort by number ADIF compliant with ADIF standard 2.2 (in Logger32 field is called the DXCC).

3.	Sort by character Callsign station to which it is sent QSL card

•

In the first two points, the program move a QSO's with a filled field VIA_QSL Manager (callsign the QSL Manager) and insert them to country manager in the sorted QSL collection. While the QSO's which must be sent DIRECT - that have in the field VIA_QSL inserted in the first place the word DIRECT will be inserted into the appropriate box above number by the DXCC country, and the ADIF = 999 which will result in the QSL will be sorted at the end of the file and so will be printed at the end. Apart this sorting scheme is doing well for those first two points , second sort by Callsign station (in the one country will be sorted QSLs also by callsign station) . Of course, first sorting will be preserved

•	In the case of 3-th point of moving the QSL card for the manager will be do if asking whether the user wishes to make such a switch. Such inquiry will be made in this window
