Re: [Dx4win] Log File Not Being Updated

The .INI file from the old version has the location of the log file
*FROM THE OLD VERSION*.  It can't predict the future!

Just do what Alan N5NA says and you'll be all set.

I'll make a note to add something about this to my upgrade application note.

 the ini file from the previous version.
 This places new entries into the log dxl file in the upgraded version folder.
 Not being able to use the ini file from the previous version adds a lot of 
 work to the upgrade process.

 I noticed this happening for at least the last four upgrades in the 7 series.

 What am I doing wrong?

I've had that happen in the past too.  Whenever I upgrade I always go to 
FileInfo.  From there you can see which log file is being used.  If 
it's the one in the old directory, just close that log file by going to 
FileClose, then open the one in the new directory, FileOpen...
