New Country ??

Post by w1ksz »

I have been using DXBase for many years and thought I would try Log4OM.

I imported my database (all 17,811 Q's) and see the Country Total is 341 ??
I checked and see a line item:

No-DXCC-Status DXCC # 999 Prefix ND

No idea where that came from as my stats in DXBase are correct.
How do I delete it ??

Click on the band square along that line to open the QSO list then double click the QSO which will open the edit window.

Now you can either correct the DXCC/Country detains or delete that QSO

I did that, there is no QSO showing, which is even more confusing.

QSO Manager screen
set as filter: DXCC = 999 and add the filter to the list.

This should show that QSO

If you're in trouble search for ">999<" in your ADIF file (without the ") with notepad or similar, you should find the QSO

If I search on "999" in the ADIF file I get to scroll through the couple of thousand
Q's I made in 1999.

Need something less time consuming.

There is no QSO shown, so QSO Manager may not work.

How do I edit the Country List, I can delete it there.

Please send me your ADIF, i'll check for you (and find a possible way to optimize this kind of issue).
send to iw3hmh [at] log4om.com
Did you imported ADIF with the "check country" field selected?
This will make a couple of checks on your data, hopefully fixing them

I did another ADIF import (I did not delete the old log, couldn't figure how to
do that), I checked the block "Update Countries in ADIF", but that extra
country is still there.

Should I have deleted the old log first ? If yes, how do I do that ?

To delete older log simply... recreate the database file over the old one.
I'm still waiting for your ADIF :)

I tried re-loading my ADIF file, but that did not work.
Tried attaching my ADIF file, but got an error message,
..."Invalid File"...

I'll post it direct.

Thanks for your help,
