I did export from dx4win into a file (not WriteLog)using the ADIF exchange format, the first export option. However the Writelog logs were imported originally INTO dx4win using the WriteLog ADIF export, apparently there's something I don't understand about that process. I think dx4win is doing the right thing. Perhaps I'll have to query the WriteLog reflector and see if anyone is getting the same results, I know a lot of them are using dx4win.
