How to mass update Country column?

Hi All,

Former HRD user, then DX Labs. Didn't like the messy DX Labs interface so I've loaded the latest Log4OM and have it configured. Imported ADIF from DX Labs DX Keeper.

The Country column is blank. I tried a mass edit by selecting all QSOs and selecting update Country name from DXCC but it does not update. I've mass updated other columns (HRDLog status, QRZ status).

Thanks!

You could have updated the countries during the import if you checked the 'Update counties in ADIF' box

It could be that the ADIF you imported did not contain DXCC references and that would account for ut not doing the update, I just tested here and it works OK when there is a DXCC reference.

Have you tried 'Verify country for callsign' as shown below?

One other reason could be that you failed to check the 'Enable update' box in the main QSO Archive manager screen

Thanks Terry. I will try the suggestions, including re-importing my adif from the other program. I am almost certain there are references to the country DXCC number for each entry as the other program tracked DXCC progress.
