20 minutes .. Using the info that was provided and its all done manually :)... 
I wasnt even in a hurry for the update but when I saw the info I just went 
ahead and did it.. 
As far as different logging programs go I really could just use 2007 forever as 
its that easy to add new countries to the database. I have another logging 
program here that ive been messing with for almost a year I think and it works 
well and is pretty simple and its free but thats not the reason i chose to try 
it.. I just tried it for fun:).. Im not gonna mention the name because it 
really doesnt matter. DxBase is still my #1 choice and ive been using it since 
the dos days with only one problem! When I started Jack told me my IC-735was 
out dated and I should buy a new rig if I wanted rig control ( ill bet he 
doesnt even remember that). Well that didnt set well with me and I bitched till 
we got it interfaced with dxbase :)... Why do we need constant updates anyway ? 
If it aint broke dont fix it !.. Sure the updated countries with an automatic 
updater is a plus but as far as the rest of the program it works for me... 
Ok off my soap box.. 
73 and good DX.

I too am sticking it out -- I have a lot of PJ contacts and I am hoping 
that I do not have to go in and change them manually -- If it comes to that 
I will / can and am able to do so.. Joe saved us on the 40 changes and I am 
sure he is watching for the changes as we all are... 
For those that feel that there is better logging programs out there 
then there is no question and a no brainer --- CHANGE PROGRAMS...

I will stick with Neal 

no hurry as PJ cant be accepted yet 

also Neal procedure should provide way to update all your entries rather 
than doing them manually 

some times progress is slow but sure

?It seems that support of any kind is at an all time low. 

We sure do miss Joe and all his efforts to keep DXBase current. 

Maybe it is time we all look for another logging program. All the other 
programs that I know of have had the PJ update since the ARRL announced the 
country codes for them. and some even before.
