Fred,
I am going to disagree with Dave (which I can do, because we go back to
before the beginning of time) and suggest that you create a new Selection.
You can do this in the Filter menu. You will want to enter the date of your
move to AZ and then check both Group Filter and Date Filter. This gives you
the advantages that Dave described, but allows you to add Groups within your
new Selection, so you can keep track of contests or other operations that
have occurred or will occur since you moved. Everything else Dave says is
correct. But the use of the Selection makes the group function even more
powerful.
BTW, the default Selection is All QSOs. When you choose that one, your
reports will be based on every QSO in the log. If you make a new Selection,
when you choose it, your reports will only be based on the QSOs in that
Selection. It is very easy to compare your new AZ results with your overall
results. I did this when I moved to AZ from CA a few years ago.

Fred,
I would create a group within your log for you new QTH. Just go to Filter,
Selection and create a new Group Filter. That way you can see all the
contacts with a given call that you made prior to AZ as well as from your
new QTH. This is especially handy if you keep the Same Call and Logbook
windows open when using DX4WIN. The Same Call window shows the group name
for every contact. You can rename groups to make them easier to recall.
Just to go Filter, Edit Group Names. You might want to name the new group
Arizona. You can make the AZ group your default group by selecting its
group number by going to File, Preference and QSO. See group in upper
right
corner.
You will find that the group functions within DX4WIN are very powerful and
easy to use. Others may know of other ways to use and refer to groups.
Dave, N4QS

I've been through the help file and could not find the answer to my
question: How do I create a new log beginning 01/01/2009 from my
existing log? I moved to AZ from NJ in January of 2009 and, while I want
to keep a Master log of all my QSOs, I want to create one for just those
Qs I've made since moving to AZ. I've not been able to find how to
create such a log. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
