[Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
I have just upgraded from V6 to V7 with the V7 installed in a new folder. Question 1) The HELP menu item does not work. On clicking I get a WARNING msg Could not get help contents Error = 0 Msg = The operation completed successfully !! If I click on Search for Help On... I get nothing at all. This might help my main problem if I could get at the help... Do I need to do something to activate the Help? Question 2) I think the ADIF field that gives the QSO confirmed status is called qsl_rcvd:1 Is this correct? Question 3) I exported my log a few weeks ago with V6 and the the few QSOs that I have card confirmations for were apparently exported correctly as the receiving application shows them as confirmed. I have since upgraded to V7 I have now created a dummy log and done 4 exports a) No confirmations in DX4Win b) card confirmation c) upload confirmation d) both confirmations I have changed the QSO preferences each time accordingly The DXCC summary report shows the correct data for each case. But all four ADIF exports have the item..qsl_rcvd:1Neor So if I am looking at the correct ADIF item I am not getting any Yes confirmations exported in any of the cases. Any help to solve this would be appreciated? Has something in this area changed from V6 to V7? 73, Dave __ Dx4win mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Dx4win@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
re 1... does it happen if you try to access help immediately after opening DX4Win? There is a bug where DX4Win looks for help in the wrong place. I've noticed it happens when you use the common dialog editor to access a log file. I think D4W is looking in the current directory instead of the application directory. 2 and 3: go to www.adif.org for an explanation of ADIF. Unfortunately D4W is still using ADIF ver 1. Card confirmed contacts should export qsl_rcvd:1y . It works fine here. David Gould wrote: I have just upgraded from V6 to V7 with the V7 installed in a new folder.

Re: [Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
The Help problem was fixed in later versions of 7. Check the shortcut icon that starts DX4WIN and make sure that Start in is the same path as the program target. I think #2 is correct, will have to get back to you on #3 if no one else does first. - Jim On Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 11:01 AM, David Gould d...@g3ueg.co.uk wrote: I have just upgraded from V6 to V7 with the V7 installed in a new folder.

Re: [Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
Dave, # 1 May be a Windows problem. I've had the same problem in the past with DX4WIN and other software specifically with help files after an update. Windows is not giving DX4WIN permission to open the help file. There are a couple ways to fix. Easiest is to find the help file in the v7 folder. Double click on it to open it up. A pop up box may appear asking if you want to open the file (or something like that), click yes or okay. Now you can close and it should work from DX4WIN.

Re: [Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
I don't believe it is correctly fixed. The fact that the start in directory has to be set is part of the problem. The current directory changes when you use the file Common Dialog.

Re: [Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.
I believe this is a problem on Vista only. You can turn UAC off... in fact, probably should on the Ham Shack computer... this may eliminate some Vista issues. I just switched my office machine to Vista 64 and haven't encountered this problem yet... but lots of other issues (Nightmare!!!). It will be a while before I try updating the old clunker in the Ham shack ;-) AC0W wrote: Dave, # 1 May be a Windows problem.
