Using version 8.04. When I set the group to "0" in the preferences and then go to real time entry the group is "0" so I cant reproduce your result for that one.
If I set the group in preferences to a group not previously set up and go to real time entry it does come up as the group set and will log it as such. As a consequence after that if I go to "Filter|Edit Group Names" the new group generated this way does not show up in the list and am not being able to use Filter|Select to find that QSO, it can be searched for by using F8. Since F8 search can be used it can be set to another group using QSO|Multiple QSO Operations. So other than being able to do something in an illogical fashion it would seem to be function ok. If I want to have a new group of QSO's I have always generated the new group by using the Filter|Edit Group Names function before logging or importing a QSO to that group in my log. As a aside note I don't log any QSO's to group "0", start from group 1 then you will be able to do a group filter search for any and or all QSO's in the log. "0" is a group of everything, including itself, a group of all groups if you like. 73 John ZL1BYZ. -----Original Message----- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of n...@comcast.net Sent: Thursday, 24 June 2010 06:08 To: Jim Reisert AD1C; DX4WIN Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Group question My error. I wanted to post it to reflector so others could try it.. Will try the date range filter to and try to set groups. I saw somewhere that you had to set a group prior to import. I just set the FILE|PREFERENCE QSO group to 0. Saved change on EXIT. Then clicked on QSO Real time in QSO window and group changed from 2 (what I had set as my default) to 0 (the changed I just made). Changed group to 5 and clicked real time QSO and 5 displayed in QSO WINDOW group. I do not have a group 5 established in the QSO|FILTER|EDIT GROUPS window. manual it will accept any number in the range 0-255. This is very easy to do. Save the charge made on FILE|PREFERENCES|QSO click on QSO|Real Time in QSO WINDOW and you are good to go. Sending this to reflector also this time.
