1/ Update QSO window from Callsign/Mgr lookup window
Two days ago I QSO KP2DA from US Virgin Islands. When I hit the Update QSO
button of the Callsign/Mgr lookup window, the grid and the state (VI) are
automatically inserted into the right fields of the QSO window.
When I save the QSO it's OK with the grid but with the state which is
automatically inserted I get an error message ("This is not a good US
state"). It's same with stations in Puerto Rico (KP).
May be it will be nice if the state from the zip code isn't inserted
automatically for the US overseas territories.
2/ Callsign/Mgr lookup window
When I hit F3 in the Callsign field of the QSO window it's appear the
Callsign/Mgr lookup window with the adress of the station. When I save the
QSO and write a new callsign into the Callsign field of the QSO window the
Callsign/Mgr lookup window is automatically updated with the datas of the
new station (adress, QSL manager, Grid for US stations).
When I leave and restart DX4WIN the Callsign/Mgr lookup window isn't visible
like zone window or country window or WPX window... I must hit F3 into the
Callsign field of the QSO window to open the Callsign/Mgr lookup window. Is
it possible that the Callsign/Mgr lookup window appear automatically when I
start DX4WIN like the others windows ?

I use DX4WIN v7.01. I could not use the "Update QSO" button with KP2DA
(because it is not an U.S. State). I could use it with a Puerto Rico
callsign, and DX4WIN said it is not a good U.S. State (like in your case).
I think this button is mostly intended for U.S. callsigns. Anyway, when
DX4WIN said it was not a good U.S. State, I simply pressed the OK button and
the "bad state" was deleted.

It seems the Callsign/Mgr has to be enabled (with F3) each time.
