I have been converting Writelog contest logs to ADIF within Writelog, and
then importing them into DX4WIN. A current thread on the WL reflector
discloses that State info is listed in the WL ADIF under QTH:2 and that
DX4WIN does not import that information.
DX4WIN's HELP file states:
ADIF is a
Of course, as soon as I sent the request for help, I realized the solution:
I had substituted STATE for QTH:2 as a column header. In fact, the :2 is
necessary so I substituted STATE:2 for QTH:2 for each QSO in the ADIF
file, and that came over to DX4WIN correctly. Canadian provinces also come

sections to states. It also gives you a field to insert a comment. It's
been a while since I used it but when I did it worked great!

Garry,
SP7DQR has written a program (WL2DX4WIN) which makes this transition,
Writelog to DX4WIN. It also does some maniupulations with numbers. I have
used the program for several years and it is excellent for getting states
into the right spot. It ignores VE provinces. The current version is
Thanks to N6KJ, who gave me the answer to importing the log file
from CTWIN. I opened the log file window and then found the ADIF
file to import. The Import menu item was no longer grayed out.
All 514 QSOs were imported.
