It's unlikely to be a new DXCC country.  Just populate the IOTA field with
OC200 and you'll get the updated bearing/distance.

Unfortunately, No.  It would be a really nice feature to be added to DX4WIN.
The choices today are only as follows:

1) Update the qsl status received via LOTW.
2) Replace the entire qso with that uploaded from LOTW which is not a good
thing, although it does populate the state, county, country, zone, etc.,
fields.

You would soon learn to check these fields very carefully, before you
allowed them to be changed because a LOT of people on LOTW do not know their
own information and have it WRONG in LOTW.  Just for a quick check, what is
your ARRL Zone, CQ Zone, Grid, and if you were DX or on an island IOTA?

DX4WIN is a really fine program and these type of neat updates are not
without many obstacles.

   How does one update the State & County fields while importing a ADIF from
LOTW. When using the 
demo version I could upload these same ADIF files and the fields would
populate just fine. Is there a 
setting that I'm missing?
