Hello Tony and list members,
  Upon further testing I find that there is an issue at least for me
under WinMe if I try to do an ADIF import using a file generated with
Cosme's program.  The end result is no data appears in the frequency
field in DXbase after doing the import.   Upon examining the .adi file I
see that freq data is entered (as Tony has pointed out) with a comma
instead of a decimal.  So 18135.00 shows up in the .adi file as 18,135
(with a comma) ..in this form when imported I get an empty freq field in
DXbase.  If I then simply replace the comma in the .adi file with a
decimal it imports properly and displays in DXbase as 18135.00    This
effect is easily duplicated.

  Lastly the .adi files generated by Cosme's export routing do not
include any freq data to the right of the decimal. So if my original log
entry is 18135.50 - and - if I change the comma to a decimal in the .adi
file and import it...I end up with 18135.00 (not 18135.50) in DXbase
which IMHO is wrong data.

  This may be a non-issue since I keep a daily .mdb backup file. But if
I did ever do an ADIF import as outlined above..many of the .50 .75 etc
freq entries would all get imported as .00

  Can anyone else give this a shot?   I have sent Cosme' email detailing
what I am seeing....
