Tom, WOW!! I reproduced what you did and WOW!!! Yep - what has happened is that the one file named pqsodflt.co got really messed up ...
I am sending you (via separate email) my copy of that file ... It will get everything back in order ... BUT, as to why just hitting the ESC key "many, many" times does this - Jack can answer that much better than I could even try to guess ... I only know that when I hit the ESC key (after bring up a bunch of QSO's in the previous QSO window) -- the hitting of that ESC key just simply looked like it was jumping from one field to the previous field -- BUT, when you get out of the Previous QSO window - and then come back in -- WOW!! It is a real MESS!! I looked for anything in the ini file that would possibly relate to the Previous QSO window and found the info about the pqsodflt.co file ... so, I tried to "make" a pqsodflt.co file from the "Field Order" utility - worked somewhat - BUT not really ... so, I grabbed my pqsodflt.co file from my spare computer and copied it over to the new computer - an VOILA!! I was back in business --- I am sending you my 2004 version of pqsodlft.co via separate email because we can not have attachments on the reflector.. But, the new co file will get you back in business without having to re-do 2004... 73 Joe wa6axe Tom Althoff wrote: > I wasn't paying attention while in the Previous QSO's window and hit the ESC > key a few times instead of closing the window by clicking on the upper right > hand corner of the window.
