Ric, I've not tested it for very long strings, say perhaps 20 or so, but it shouldn't make a difference since the text is taken out of a standard MFC edit box.
Also I made a mistake on the name of the ZIP file. It should have been ADIFTools.zip. It will be obvious to any one going there, but I do feel chagrined about it! ;-) -ricK7log -----Original Message----- From: Ric Plummer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 11, 2002 5:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WriteLog] FW: [Dx4win] Adding a comment to QSOs in an ADIF file. Interesting Ric, I use logic5 and when I import an ADIF from WL is gives you the opportunity to add a short field, I think it's 8 or 10 characters, for contest id, such as ARRLCW02 or the like, but it isn't as flexible as your alternative.
