Looking to the future possibilities, I wanted to see

what the eQSL INBOX adi download looked like. I am
going 
to write a test exe project file for the eQSL
confirmations. 



I know that right now, CQ magazine will take eQSL
confirmations 
and some other awards will also -- so, I wanted to
check what 
condx the adi downloaded file would look like
and only found one 
very small OOPS!



eQSL adi file's TIME_ON field is only 4-digits in 
size - 
such as:


2240



When I import (using my exe trial project program) - I will

only look to the first 4-digits -- since DXbase 2007 uses

6-digits ... and, that I could see, the only bad results

could be when the same call, freq, mode, date, and 4-digit 
time
is the same for two or more qsos.. doesn't look like 
it would
be that much of a problem though.


The eQSL downloaded adi file doesn't have any "QSLRDATE" field,

so after MATCHING the incoming adi QSO with a logbook QSO,

the only thing that I would do is to "indicate" somewhere 
that
the QSO is confirmed via eQSL with:

eQSLcfmd


I would 
probably (for now) put my own eQSL cfmd status into 
my
logbook's "Special 2" column.




Again, this is a test project 
to see how it would import and
give me STATS as to whether 
I did have "anything new".





Just passing this along as FYI.
