Paul,
Ok, understand. What version of Log4OM are you running, and what version of Windows are you running? I will try to duplicate this in the current version of Log4OM - v1.24.

Paul, I just tried adding the eQSL Rcvd status and eQSL Rcvd Date columns to the F8 tab and qso's with eQSL rcvd are showing correctly in the display - v1.24. Make sure you are looking at the correct QSO record, same call, date and time between QSO Management window and F8 tab. Everything looks fine on my install.
Let me know if you still have a dependency.

Doug- good morning and thanks so much for the ongoing assist, despite my thick head. I am running win 7 on PC and I have v1.24.0.0 of Log4OM. You were correct in that I was looking at the just the first few screens of f8 as I scrolled down and when not seeing anything didn't continue scrolling down anymore. Turns out most of my log going back to 2009 DID have LOTW and some eQSL status. So here is where I am now in my ongoing conversion from HRD logbook to Log4OM.
- I seem to have LOTW uploading and downloading squared away. My LOTW Sent column is up to date and and the last LOTW received was 3/17/16 which may be normal. But the operation of doing each seems to be working OK in Log4OM.
- Eqsl is a different story. I am using the same user ID and password that I am using successfully in HRD logbook but I am not able to up or download in LOg4OM to EQSL. Doing download- I get a "Operation Complete" box, but never seeing any details on the transaction in the blue download box? When doing an Upload, I select the records, click on Upload, but never seeing any messages or dialogue on the transaction, the blue box just sits there and shows no action?

EQSL supports more "profiles".
Callsign and password aren't enough to identify the correct profile, because Log4OM is able to work on specific profiles and it does.
Have you set the QTH Nickname in "external log" information tab in program settings?
It's usually "home"
Check "my account" screen in EQSL.CC website. It usually reports the QTH nickname under your callsign

I have no "nickname set in EQSL account section, just checked, and no nick name in Log4OM setup. Still can't download, when I try get an Immediate "Operation Complete" and see no dialogue, that you see in the You Tube Videos that Terry did on up and downloading from Eqsl.

Hi Paul, I also recently switched from HRD. On the main display click on the Recent QSO tab or F8.

On the bottom of the Recent QSO window click on Layout. You can select and deselect the fields. Click the floppy disc icon to save your selection. 73 Lee - VE4DXR

Lee- thanks for the suggestions. I have done both, selected the eqsl sent and received columns in Layout and then saved the selection, that worked fine. The Problem is I can not up or download from eqsl, using Log4OM, using the same credentials that still work in HRD logbook. That is the mystifying thing here, same credentials work on one, not the other??? Am wondering if there is some entry in the config file that I can erase and start over somehow??

Paul,
Make sure that when you examine your eQSL account on eQSL.cc, that you click on the "My Profile" link, NOT THE "My Accounts" link. The My Accounts like will not show your current profile, but a blank profile for creating a new profile. So, click on the My Profile link and it will display your current profile with your current QTH Nickname info. Use that name in the Log4OM eQSL setup in the "QTH Nickname" field.
Let us know if that solves your issue with downloading eQSL confirmations.

Doug - thank you very much for the hint, problem FINALLY solved- Yup, I was looking in the eQSL Accounts section where Home QTH was blank, went to the Profile section and there is was "Home QTH" was listed as the nickname and all is good now with up and downloading to eQsl. So I have the importing to Log4OM about complete and all set up the way I want. Have one more off the wall question though. I added a column called SKCC, which I assume is for the Straight Key Century Club and entering member numbers. Do you have any idea how that is populated?? I assume that when you enter a new contact , you enter the SKCC #. But what about a log conversion where one has imported a bunch of contacts form another log. Is there anyway to batch update all the numbers?
73 and thanks again
