I can't speak for Paul... but the "problem" you identify is actually one of DX4Win's strengths... All the information is in one place. If you correct one occurrence, you correct them all. I would hate him to change that.
What I do... and it works for me... If it is just a matter of recording the operator... I put Club or DXped or Spcl Envt in name depending on what is most appropriate... I put Op-name in the QSO Notes (Not Call Notes) In the situation where QTH is also variable... I think that's less common... also put QTH-location in the QSO notes. Just to review... Call notes (and now Name and QTH) are linked to a unique callsign... you change one and you have changed them all. QSO notes are unique to each Contact. Also, don't forget Ctrl-E opens up both notes into a multi-line memo... so you can store a lot of info. ...Mel The other situation I encounter... since I've been at this a while is the re-assigned call problem. In this case I put the Historical info into the CALL Notes (Not QSO Notes) and the new name and QTH in the appropriate fields. This instantly update ALL references to the same call.
