I am using dxb2007 and it stays with no problem. The only thing I can suggest is to go into the windows directory (winnt for 2000 and nt. Windows for all others.) and open the file Dxb____.ini, where the ____ is the version year, in notepad. Go to Edit/find in the menu and search for TIPS and change the 1 to 0. Do this with DXB closed. Give that a shot. If that doesn't work, maybe bite your tongue while doing it.
Good Luck, Tim, KQ8M -----Original Message----- From: Bill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 01, 2007 11:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: RE: [Dxbase] Re: Dxbase Help with log refresh This looks like the most promising idea I have seen yet, but how do you KEEP the option unselected? I have tried everything I can think of, and it keeps turning the option back on. As soon as I leave the option window, a tool tip appears under my cursor. When I go back to the tool tip option, it is checked again. Is this function linked to some other function that must be changed? I have tried to immediately close the program and reopen it, but no luck. The option is checked again. Maybe you need to do it with your left hand, or bite your tongue while changing it. I have not tried all those options yet. Maybe someone could help me first.

If you turn them off then the problem goes away. Turn them on and it is back. Turn them off in user options under log defaults. Uncheck show tooltips.

Move the mouse across the log window and the data blows away. I just used the mouse to change screens to leave the log and return to restore it or move the data cursor on the right side and slide it up and back to refresh the data. 73 Garth VE3HO At 04:05 AM 3/4/2007, you wrote: >Bob, > >I am pretty good about updating drivers.
