Having a problem with the VALID column. QSOs were imported from Dxbase 2000 into DXbase 2005. Some of the qsos PRIOR TO 1975 are highlighted in RED and the MODE box is unchecked, indicating that this qso is not valid for dxcc band or mode award (A DXCC Award Rule). However . . . . there are other qsos also dated before 1975 that are not highlighted in red and both the mixed and mode boxes are checked undert the VALID column. Running INITIALIZE TABLES does not correct this discrepency.
What's up? How can this be fixed or is there something I don't understand? 73's . . .

Were you using one of the reports built into DXBase, or were you designing your own. Many of the reports built into DXBase do show the band in meters. It would be helpful to know which report you were trying to use. 73, Jim N6VH Bob Main wrote: > I was trying to create a report to show me which SSB stations in the > US that I have confirmed on 80 mtrs.
