Still having some difficulty getting what I want from the adif file from LOTW.
1. I start with a file containing a QSO that does not have a State indicated. 2. The file does not have an Upload Confirm flag. What I want to get from the LOTW file: 1. The State 2. The Confirm flag I have checked the LOTW adif file and state is indicated correctly. So if I import that file into the existing file the state and other stuff update fine if I set the duplicate handling to "imported QSO replaces existing". This is great but it does not set the confirmed flag. So I run the LOTW file again and say "Imported QSO sets upload confirmed flag". It sets the flag but then erases the state info. Either I am processing this incorrectly or we need more flexibility in importing fields into the data base.

Paul may add this in a future version. If you use the "New QSO over-writes existing" you should get the extra data, but you might lose other info you logged with the QSO. Only the first option you tried will set the confirmed flag. The "overwrites existing" option is generic for ADIF files (i.e. importing from contest logging software), so in general you do NOT want this changing confirmation flags. 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, 7 Charlemont Court, North Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA +978-251-9933, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.ad1c.us
