A thought, which might be way off base. Is there a way to block delete QSO's in DXBase? If I recall there is/was a way in with an add-on program to block change times in CT. Once that was done, and assuming the QSO's with the incorrect time had been block deleted in DXBase, then could you not "re-import" the QSO's which presumably now have the correct time?
As I said, I may be way off track with this thought... 73, Doug W4OX / KG4OX At 10:25 PM 10/9/2005, Joseph Glockner wrote: >Bill, > >be very careful -- if you re-import that adif that he is >updating for you, then you probably will have DUPE entries.. > >73 Joe wa6axe > >Bill Parry wrote: > >>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.
