ARe you using a RAC or QRZ CDROM lookups for the QSOs ??? Sometimes the FORMAT of the CDROM entry is corrupt or just TOO LONG for DXbase --- and if the CDROM County is supposed to be auto-populated (by your selection in OPTIONS) -- then -- if the CDROM has a BUM County (City name, etc) -- then it will CLASH with DXbase ...
Best test is to TURN-OFF your CDROM look-ups completely (temporarily) and do another TEST QSO (that you KNOW will BOMB-OUT) -- and see what happens Joe wa6axe To: [email protected] CC: [email protected] From: [email protected] Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2011 13:57:53 -1000 Subject: Re: [dxbase] Re: Dxbase 2007 won't accept drop down county name I have had the same problem, there seems to be a bug of some sort that at times will not allow the county to be selected or if it does it locks up that entry and you cannot move or enter anything else. I have been able to repeat it many times, I find that the only way out is to usually shut down DXBase and go to qso, reselect the state again and then the county and it is ok. The bug seems to be that DXbase does not recognize the state entry all the time, but its too late to re-enter the state after you try selecting the county and then it locks up. Little difficult to describe, but there is a problem .. 73 Merv K9FD/KH6 Yes, the state has been entered. Then I get the drop down menu with all of the counties in that state. It is when I choose the county from the drop down menu and the county is in the county box that I am unable to update the record. --- In [email protected], "Dave Gmail" <ve3wej@...> wrote: > > Is the state been entered first.
