The procedure for submitting for awards for dx4win is as follows.
Select the awards you want and submit. This produce a file. For iota
award this file is used just to find the cards you need. You can always
to make a search (f8) with the qso window expanded (f5) and look for
iota mixed=s and get the same file whenever you want after the first
submission. After that you must go to their site and manually write
every card in their database. They recognise every qso is also submitted
for iota contest. That is what the adif or cabrillo file is. After you
have the cards checked you go and change the flags as Mel said. There is
no need to import the file they produce. This is for someone has not dx4win

Thanks Mel,
Yes I am a registered user of IOTA and have an account. I presently have 249
IOTA credits with IOTA. I have a .csv file downloaded from the RSGB IOTA web
site with my IOTA credits listed. Can I use this file to update my IOTA status
in DX4WIN somehow? I can upload my QSO's to their website at anytime. But my
question is can I do the upload from a file exported from DX4WIN? I presently
use the DX4WIN REPORT GENERATOR window to give a .csv file of my IOTA QSO's.
Then I print out this DX4WIN IOTA.csv file and manually type in each individual
IOTA QSO into the IOTA submissions webpage. For LOTW I can easily convert a
DX4WIN ADIF file to a file that I can download direct into LOTW. For IOTA I
must type in each QSO into their website. I would like to know if there is a
way to download an exported DX4WIN file directly to IOTA. As it is I can take
any of my IOTA Contest Cabrillo files and import it directly to IOTA. I would
like to know if I can do the same for non contest contests v
ia an DX4WIN ADIF file or .csv file.
Thank you (and Cesar PY2YP) for pointing out the REPORTS-AWARD FLAGS-CHANGE
AWARD FLAGS FUNCTION. I had missed this but that is what I was looking for.

Hi Alan,
You cannot upload any files for IOTA awards unless you have participated in the
IOTA contest and submitted an cabrillo file for participating in the contest.
Then you can use that file to add the new island you worked and that have been
accepted as an valid contact in the contest to your IOTA account. This is
possible first when the logs have been checked.
The change from submitted to checked
If you go in under the report heading in the top menu of the QSO window and click
on the Award flags button you can in the Award field select IOTA mixed and in the
Action field select Submitted -> Checked.
Then all contacts you have labeled with a S in the IOTA column and the mixed
field will be converted to a C for checked.
Good luck in the chasing of IOTAs

2013/2/6 ALAN ZACK <[email protected]>:
I wonder if there are any DX4WIN users out there who also make
submissions to their IOTA card checker for IOTA credits.
I know I can use the REPORT GENERATOR: IOTA: SUBMISSIONS and get a
list of IOTA contacts that I have marked for submission in the bottom
of the main logging window. I also know I can download this report as
a excel file. Now after I made my submission I have 249 IOTA's
confirmed for credit. Now I need to change the status of these 249
contacts from S to C. Is there an easy way to do this other than change each
contact individually?
Also is there an easy way to export IOTA QSO data from DX4WIN to a
file to import to the IOTA webpage submissions page? Presently I use
the excel file I generate from DX4WIN and manually type in the data
for each QSO into the IOTA submissions page.
After my submissions are completed by RSGB IOTA I can download a .csv
file of my IOTA credits. Is there any way I can use this .csv file to
import to DX4WIN to change my submission status from S to C?
