Thanks Mel,

Yes I am a registered user of IOTA and have an account. I presently have 249 
IOTA credits with IOTA. I have a .csv file downloaded from the RSGB IOTA web 
site with my IOTA credits listed. Can I use this file to update my IOTA status 
in DX4WIN somehow? I can upload my QSO's to their website at anytime. But my 
question is can I do the upload from a file exported from DX4WIN? I presently 
use the DX4WIN REPORT GENERATOR window to give a .csv file of my IOTA QSO's. 
Then I print out this DX4WIN IOTA.csv file and manually type in each individual 
IOTA QSO into the IOTA submissions webpage. For LOTW I can easily convert a 
DX4WIN ADIF file to a file that I can download direct into LOTW. For IOTA I 
must type in each QSO into their website. I would like to know if there is a 
way to download an exported DX4WIN file directly to IOTA. As it is I can take 
any of my IOTA Contest Cabrillo files and import it directly to IOTA. I would 
like to know if I can do the same for non contest contests v
 ia an DX4WIN ADIF file or .csv file.

Thank you (and Cesar PY2YP) for pointing out the REPORTS-AWARD FLAGS-CHANGE 
AWARD FLAGS FUNCTION. I had missed this but that is what I was looking for.

73, Alan, K7ACZ

Hi Alan,
You cannot upload any files for IOTA awards unless you have participated in the 
IOTA contest and submitted an cabrillo file for participating in the contest. 
Then you can use that file to add the new island you worked and that have been 
accepted as an valid contact in the contest to your IOTA account. This is 
possible first when the logs have been checked.

The change from submitted to checked
If you go in under the report heading in the top menu of the QSO window and 
click on the Award flags button you can in the Award field select IOTA mixed 
and in the Action field select Submitted -> Checked.
Then all contacts you have labeled with a S in the IOTA column and the mixed 
field will be converted to a C for checked.

Good luck in the chasing of IOTAs
