Hi all, I'm new to the list so sorry if this has been asked before.
I am in the process of writing a program that looks up a state,city combination and determines the county name. Then I want to update the DX4WIN .DXL file (directly or indirectly) with the county. I want to make sure I do it in a way that will allow DX4WIN to"notice" that I added the County and alter any tables, counters etc that it may maintain. Ideas I had to accomplish this task: 1) Do an Export to a .DXQ/.DXN file. Modify the County field in the .DXQ file and then re-Import the modified file. 2) Export in .ADIF format. Fix the values and then re-import. 3) Modify the .DXL file directly. If this is done, will County totals/counts get updated? If anyone is interested in what I come up with, let me know and I'll email you once I have something working. 73, Lee N7NU
