Check the Ext Data settings in your Preferences.

Re: [Dx4win] F3 and Update QSO button
Is the UPDATE QSO button highlighted or grayed out? In my case I get my QSL info from the GOLIST. When QSL info is available there is a note to the effect: QSL info from: C:\GOLIST\GOWIN32.DLL If the info is there the UPDATE QSO button is highlighted and when clicked will fill in the State, County, Grid, etc, info. This only works for US calls. ___ Alan Zack Amateur Radio Station K7ACZ Official USCG Auxiliary Comm Station Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Delta Rocket Quality Engineer, The Boeing Company, Retired Aviation Chief Warrant Officer, U.S. Coast Guard, Retired --- - Original Message - From: John Unger w...@verizon.net To: Larry Gauthier (K8UT) k...@arrl.net Cc: Dx4win@mailman.qth.net Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2009 2:51 PM Subject: Re: [Dx4win] F3 and Update QSO button Hi Larry - Thanks for the tip and information, but I must have an option somewhere not set or something.

[Dx4win] F3 again
Hello folks, F3 has worked fine over the years until yesterday. Now when pushing F3, I get the message 'An exception occured, Invalid file name'. If I then try another callsign there is no message but the horizontal blue top section of the QSO window turns grey. I can access the disc directly without problem. I use RAC and nothing is changed in Preferences. So, anybody out there have had the same problem? I could definitly use some good advice, please. Merry Xmas and A Happy New Year to everybody from a cold Sweden (-14 Centigrades). 73 Erik Erik Hyllander, SM0LZT e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] alt.: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Packet: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ralph, I have had some strange, inexplicable behavior with DX4WIN at times.
