Courtney is right. I usually look at the ADIF file and make global changes from QTH to STATE as necessary.
For example, in NAQP I can change the QTH field to STATE and DXBASE will put the state in the state field. It will ignore as an error any Canadian provinces. Works great. Backup your original database and play around with it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jeff Davis Sent: Sunday, August 04, 2002 12:50 PM To: DXBase; Jack Subject: Re: [DXBase] Log Defaults and ADIF Import Hmmm, I will look into the ADIF generation, however, it seems to make sense that if it isn't specifically included in the ADIF that DXBase would abide by the default settings for those fields?

If there were a field in your ADIF for power per the ADIF specs, DXbase would use it. Ditto on the question someone posed about state appearing in the QTH field. The ADIF standard provides a field for State and DXbase will use it if it is provided in accordance with the ADIF standard. The resolution for both issues is to get a updated ADIF compliant patch from your contest software maker. Or, edit the .adi file before performing an import and fix up the .adi file with the correct fields.
