I will check it out.  Thank you!

I must most respectfully ask, what makes you think I didn't do my
homework first?  Did I mention I'm a cantankerous old fart?  Though
sometimes, thru laziness and to save time, I skip the searches, this
time I did not.  I did various google searches for Amateur Radio Logging
software.  All I found was K-Log, an un-compiled program that, as a
newbie, I wouldn't know what to do with, yet.   In the K-Log FAQ the
writer mentioned scores of other logging programs but I've been unable
to find any of them.  I also searched this groups archive several
times.  BTW the searches at Yahoogroup timed out almost every time.

I did not know that.  Thank you.

And finally for all those concerned, yes I know that some egroups frown
on replying to the whole group with OT comments.  This is a fairly
inactive group without much traffic so I figured I'd comment just a
little until admonished.  Also since this is my first go-round here I
thought I reply to each person who responded to my questions as sort of
an introduction.  That won't happen in the future.
