[Dx4win] External Program Callsign Address Lookup

2002-05-07 Thread <[EMAIL PROTECTED] (John F. Samuels)
C:\HAM\DX4W503\EXTDATA\QSL.BAT is what I use. The idea is to place all of the text to be displayed into manager.res. When I get a chance, I'll write a little REXX program to extract data from a file and output it to manager.res. John, K2CIB Original Message: > Message: 15 > From: "Goody" <[EMAI

[Dx4win] Multiple QSL Managers - A Work Around

2002-05-07 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
One way that I used successfully to separate SSB contacts from CW/RTTY contacts for K1B was: 1. Eliminate the manager in the QSO window (I substituted an "*") 2. Using a filter select all phone contacts and change all the QSL blocks to confirmed = "Y" 3. Print labels - all QSOs marked "confir

Like many on the reflector, I've been a DX4WIN owner since the very early 1.X versions. Over the years, this subject has come up many times. In all these years of using the program, I've made many changes to the country database. Enough that I believe that the common portion (country and details t

I would be glad if you could simply purchase this service from go-list (K1XN) or someone else that would keep it very current. ON4AOI provides a nice database (of unknown origin - but quite large in size) service at n/c on his web site, but keeping qsl managers really up to date and for the exact

I am using DX4WIN, and I have few questions I need help on... I recently changed my callsign. What is the procedure to chnage the registration when I open the program? Also, if I create a new logfile with my new callsign, can I merge this new logfile with my old logfile (former callswign)?

The way DX4WIN's country file is set up, if you just download a new version from time to time, you will lose any customization (callsign exceptions) you've entered. In my case, I have lots of obsolete Russian calls (and some others) from the 70s entered, and correctly identified, that will get

The original poster was a bit cocky, but it isn't unreasonable to expect updated database files on the website. Most other logging programs vendors do it. While I'm computer literate and know how to maintain the files, I shouldn't have to wade through reflector archives or subscribe to a reflecto
