 I'll second that.  Three cheers to Jim AD1C for doing such a fine job.

  Note that the QSL managers get refreshed with each new (monthly)  
release of the country files.

I was going to suggest the same thing. I gave up trying to keep up with
special calls and QSL managers. Jim just does a much better job than I
could! I limit myself to notifying him if I encounter something interesting
that should go in the DB...

[Dx4win] Correcting QSL Manager entry in logbook

2010-09-10 Thread WB2AIV Bill 
  I'm having a problem with the QSL Manager entry in my log (ver 
8.04).   After I entered a qso offline I found a qsl manager from the 
station's qrz.com page.  I typed it into the log but I 'fat-fingered' it 
and got it wrong but didn't notice until after I clicked 'save 
changes'.  Now I'm trying to correct the entry but the program won't let 
me.  I can go to the qso entry box, highlight the manager's call, and 
delete it. I then hit enter and get the do you want to save the 
changes box.  I click 'yes' but the log box doesn't reflect the 
change.  If I switch to another qso and then back, the manager call has 
not been deleted.  I've tried doing a 'file save' after the 'save 
changes' but that didn't help.  I've tried re-starting DX4W after the 
save but the manager's call is still there.  I tried the update this 
qso menu command after erasing the call in the qso box also without 
success.


I went to the database at File / databases / qsl managers (in expert 
mode) and can find the entry for the station with the bogus manager call 
I entered,  but can't edit it.  (The station worked is not in the 
'regular' uploaded database.  The only entry was my bogus one.)

Can't someone explain what I'm doing wrong and how to edit the manage 
entry in my log (or point me to the page in the manual that explains it. 
   ;)

Thanks,

Bill WB2AIV
