I wanted to finish off this thread. QSL managers are stored in the country file. Before DX4WIN 9.0x, the country file was saved every time you exited DX4WIN. In DX4WIN 9.0x, that is not the case. The country file is read-only. There is a separate file in the SAVE directory named "usrexcpt.dat". This file contains all changes you have made to either callsign prefixes or QSL managers, and is saved every time you exit DX4WIN. Therefore, once there is an error in this file, simply installing the latest country file will not fix the problem. I told Paul to delete this file, and his QSL manager in error disappeared. I generally don't ever look at this file. It usually only contains mistakes I made while logging, for example, assigning the wrong CQ zone to a USA callsign. I've said it before and I'll say it again - if you find an error with either the country prefix associated with a callsign, or a QSL manager, please let me know via E-mail so I can fix the master database (country file). Then everyone will benefit from the correction. -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <jjreis...@alum.mit.edu>, http://www.ad1c.us ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
