I should have suggested that when you create that new log column file that you save it with a different name. This way you will have the default to go back to. I saved mine with w9ol_log.co and w9ol_prev.co
To get these modified columns, first make sure that you have PROMPTS AT STARTUP in the Tools/Options menu set to Database and Field Order. With that item checked, you will be asked to select the column order file when first starting DXBase. In the Previous QSO window, there is another option to select which Previous QSO file you wish to be used. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Emil Tillona" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "FireBrick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, May 25, 2003 6:20 PM Subject: Re: [DXBase] QSO Log ver 2004 > Thanks once again.
