Joe - Don't misinterpret my report of this problem. DXbase is a very full featured logging software package. I've been a very pleased customer having started with DXbase's DOS versions. Like all sophisticated software it is highly complex and few if any large complex software packages are bug free. There are simply too many variables in configuration, usage, dependencies, etc.
