This might work for you..... I have my 'summer 2005' cd data copied to my local hard drive, C:, and it works. The catch is that all the CD call data is in a directory called "callbk" (on the root of C). I copied only the contents of that directory from the CD to the hard drive. I didn't copy the pictures sub-directory.
In DX4WIN setup, my data source is "QRZ CDRom", data directory is just "C:". It seems to find it ok this way. I could NOT get it working specifying another directory for the data on C: drive, other than the "callbk". To be clear, my QRZ data is located at C:/callbk/ 73 Ernie W8EH Dick Flanagan wrote: > > Perhaps someone on the reflector can explain to both of us how to get > DX4WIN to utilize QRZ CDROM data that has been copied to a local disk > directory. > > 73, Dick > -- > Dick Flanagan K7VC NV SM > E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jan 15 17:05:00 2006 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dick Flanagan) Date: Sun Jan 15 17:09:57 2006 Subject: [Dx4win] Re: QRZ CDROM Bug In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks, Ernie. I haven't tried it, but it makes perfect sense that installing the QRZ CDROM data in the root directory of a local drive should work. Excellent work-around until a permanent correction can be released.
