Hi Malcom, Yes, I see the spelling error for RIO GRANDE. To change the spelling requires a couple steps:
If you have any QSOs in your log with the ROI GRANDE ( the incorrect spelling ), then: 1. Open Tools/Database Access/States and Counties. 2. Add a new county for the correct spelling RIO GRANDE. 3. Change all the old ROI entries in your log to the new RIO. 4. Repeat step 1 and delete the old ROI entry from the counties database. 5. Initialize tables. If you have no entries in your QSO log for the old ROI: 1. Open Tools/Database Access/States and Counties 2. Locate the ROI entry and overtype with the correct RIO 3. You will see a warning message telling you the new entry isn't in statistics table ( just ignore it since this condition is expected at this point in time). 4. Initialize tables. When we were implementing county support, we asked for assistance in verifying county names because we found several different references for the county names and in many cases spelling was different. Unfortunately, we didn't get very much input, so we made our best guess as to which spelling was correct. There may be some that need to be changed so please inform us in direct email when you encounter this.
