I'll add a comment to David's good explanation. When I did my first ADIF export of a 10,000 QSO log, I was convinced it hadn't worked because the export completed almost instantaneously. I was prepared for at least many seconds of watching a QSO counter step down or something similar. I was surprised to find the ADIF file was indeed complete when I looked at it with Wordpad.
