ADIF import + how to reset/delete a log ?

Post by DK5EW »

I'm trying to import my logbook in ADIF format from another log.(HamOffice)
Problem is that Log4OM uses opthers letters for marking the QSL status (send/received/Lotw/Clublog) than Hamoffice

Is there a kind of ADIF import manager where I can manage the QSL letter x is Log4OM letter y ?

Another question: is there a possibilty to reset/empty the log for a new import ?

Hi

I empty my log for a fresh start my selecting File - New Database.

You can have as many as you like. But only one at a time.

Martin TNX information.

Thought der should be a way to use the same database instead of creating allways a new one .
Thought for a simple button"reset the log" like others have.

Can you imagine how many accidental log deletions these "Others" experience? "Reset the log" could refer to anything!

In Log4om you can delete all or some log entries, but we have ensured that it has to be a conscious effort, not done by mistake!

In the QSO Archive manager check the boxes "Enable update" and 'Enable removal'

Highlight (Select) some or all of your QSO's

Press the 'Delete' button on your computer keyboard to delete the selected entries

You cant delete by mistake with this method!

Terry TNX for answer.

Oh yes I can imagine that there could be accidents. From this state of view I'm with you.
On the other hand a dete button with a backup question and are you sure should be possible (the Microsoft way).

I tried now to delete 10 QSO works fine. I tried to delete 1000 QSO my computer hangs up.

QSO Archive manager is bulk editor

Sort/select QSO's then highlight them and File update button

Have you watched the Log4om YouTube videos?
