Jim and John, I just replicated the problem here as well. I am a QRZ subscriber, so normally when making a QSO I hit Update QSO in the Callsign/Mgr lookup. But I have found it does not update with new data unless the field in the logging window is blank. For example, if I have already worked the station and from a previous contact have a four digit grid entered, the update will not change that entry -- even though QRZ is showing the entire six digit grid. I have to delete the prior value and then click on Update QSO. The new six digit value is then entered into the empty grid field. Same goes for name, city, county -- any of the other fields.
So when it comes to county, I just found a prior QSO that did not have a county filled in. I attempted to Update QSO from the Callsign/Mgr lookup window. The county shows up in the log entry window and then I save. But when I reopen that QSO, the new county info is not there. Like Jim said, I have to do it two or three times. I noticed that the original blank county field had two dashes (--). My theory is that the program sees those two dashes and assumes that the county field has data in it, and then does not update the new data. You have to click in that field to get it to delete the -- and then it appears that the new data will fill and then be saved. Not exactly sure about this behavior, but it appears to be consistent with how the other fields get updated. 73, Dave, N4QS -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Reisert AD1C Sent: Saturday, February 24, 2018 9:49 AM To: [email protected] Cc: DX4WIN <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Not saving updates from QRZ The third time (once the state had been saved), I was able to change the county and save the QSO (using ENTER) On Sat, Feb 24, 2018 at 8:48 AM, Jim Reisert AD1C <[email protected]> wrote: > I tried again to change the state and county.
