I've noticed similar glitches in the county field of 2006. The following is based on my limited use of the county field so far since upgrading. When using the Previous QSOs screen to enter info from a received card I've noticed county field performance is intermittent. When going to enter the county info I tab over the previous fields, including the State field. Some times it appears as though DXB doesn't pick up the state info when I tab through the field. If I start typing the county info (in lower case) and auto fill doesn't complete the entry, it's because the wrong states counties are in the collapsed list and the county being entered isn't there. If I move the mouse cursor back to the state field and click on it, then tab to the county field and start to enter the county info it is correctly entered because the correct county list for this state has now been selected. The behavior noted appears intermittent at this point. Sometimes tabbing through the state field selects the correct county list, sometimes it doesn't! Gary AL9A
