Howdy Joe, That very thought had occurred to me when I was writing the prior e-mail. Since I don't have the spreadsheet programs (nor would I know how to use them) I guess I'll have to find another way. It was the WPX contest and apparently I wasn't the only one that had problems importing from CT back then. (Had a couple of e-mails from others.)
I became aware of this thru a QSL problem and after a little looking I noticed that, in my log, the contest started at 0700 instead of 0000. You would have thought I would have noticed it at the time! Anyway, he offered to correct the problem if I would send him the adif file of the contest. Apparently his logging program has a function to make these kinds of block changes. Maybe this would be a good upgrade for DXBase.
