Hi Steve, Joe, What DXBase calls a prefix is a shortcut for the DXCC intity. If you look in the DXBase file refdata.mdb you will see a table called PREFIX-Pri. You'll see what I'm taking about. And that is what I was referring to. Not the stations prefix. But as Joe pointed out it appears in DXBPFX.
