[Dx4win] Custom AWD trouble

2010-05-06 Thread SM6FUD
Hi all,

I downloaded the new version 8.04.

I've found that newly logged QSOs in 8.04 given a custom award does not show up 
in any of the related lists.
The RDA value for example LP-07 entered in Custom award value in QSO window 
does not show up in Worked list covering Russian District Award.

I'm not new with this. It has been working flawlessly during all time up to now.

After changing the DX4WIN.AWD file in 8.04 to the one file from ver 8.03 
everything works correct and the new added QSO with the new award value shows 
up in all lists in 8.04.

The DX4WIN.AWD from ver 8.04 doesn't contribute to the QSO entered values?

I suppose I'm doing something wrong somehow or there is something that I should 
know in ver 8.04?

Pse help...

Could be a bug in the award file.  I'll look into it.

Is LP-07 one of the RDA numbers that was removed in the recent re-organization?

Hi Bengt,

This appears to be a bug in DX4WIN.  I'll try to explain it.

You have two QSOs logged with RDA numbers that are no longer in the
RDA (Award) database:

2002/09/21 12:16:56 RW0UMRDA CT-07
2004/09/18 12:30:59  RK0UTRDA CT-01

This is due to the recent reorganization - all CT RDA's were changed
to ZK (I think).

If you search for those two QSOs, you'll find the RDA number is HA-01,
which is not correct, but is the first one alphabetically by name in
the RDA list (since DX4WIN couldn't find CT-##, it picked its own).
This apparently confuses DX4WIN, and interferes with the report
generation.

If you change those two QSOs so that they do NOT have a RDA custom
award name/value, then your report should look OK (I tried it here).
Or if you can find out what CT-07 and CT-01 are in the NEW listing,
you can change them to the new numbers.

It's up to Paul how to decide what to do when a custom award value in
a log is no longer in the Awards database.  It seems to break the
reporting function.

Here's how I found the problem: I exported the log to DX4WIN8 format,
then imported into an empty log.  I got import errors for those two
QSOs (plus another one OE3*B or something like that).  And the report
listing worked with this new log.  I wrote the temporary log to
another DX4WIN8-format log, then compared the two .DXQ files.
