I find it interesting that we've not heard from the programmers - at least, not that I've seen. And thank you to Jim for at least looking into this situation and trying to find an answer.
The fact that it happened, and to so many people, suggests to me that it truly is a bug that needs to be found and killed. I, too, lost state/county info, BUT not 100% (and I don't see a pattern as to which Qs still have the info vs those that don't), It would be interesting to know if the data truly are gone, or if they're in some file somewhere, and DX4Win is just not able to "read" things correctly - and a fix can be had....

Exactly how, I can't say. The 50 states themselves are part of the country file. By downloading and installing the country file I released a couple of days ago, you'll fix the corrupted country file problem, but it will not fix your log if you have saved it while using the corrupted country file. Hopefully you have a log backup. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C/?, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ad1c.us ________________________________________________________________________ More new features than ever.
