Hello everyone, May I ask for some help with the log on PSK-PAL please? I have been playing about with this on and off for days and I still don't get it!. It's plain that I am misunderstanding the procedure, so is there someone about who can give me step by step guidance.?
I am trying to understand the logdata files using widows XP. Quoting the help page in PSK-PAL it says " the logbook is designed for almost instant display of the call details. Log searches for a call as it is typed into the CALL BOX, letter by letter and displays the result when a match is found" or "Type in the new call details and SAVE." When "the program "boots up", a copy of logdata file is saved as LOGDATA.BAK On the first use of the program, entering the first saved call will generate a log data file " OK. I now have a logdata file in DOCUMENTS, and the file is named "PSK-PAL log data file". Right click on the file, Choose SELECT and the PSK-PAL log data file appears. I have to enter a file name, and the first part of the name must be "logdata", and I name the file "logdata PSK-PAL". and then click OPEN. Underneath this window is a box labelled " Files of type" with the wording "All logdata files" inserted, and underneath that is an unchecked box, "open as read only" When OPEN is clicked, the logdata file in DOCUMENTS closes and then I am returned to the PSK-PAL operating page. If I return to SELECT logdata directory, the file name I typed in "logdata PSK-PAL" has disappeared and the window is empty again. Another problem problem I have is when I highlight a CALL and NAME. I click SETUP , scroll down and choose "locate logdata file to use" and the PSK-PAL logdata file appears, which is located in DOCUMENTS. A box appears with choices, CALL, NAME, SEND TO LOG DETAILS, SEND TO TX SCREEN, SEND TO RX SCREEN, COPY, and CLEAR MARKER. I can get all to function, except for "send to log details" "copy" and "clear marker". The 3 mentioned items just disappear. I am completely confused, any help will be appreciated. It may be easy for some people but its not for me ! 73, Mel G0GQK Please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks ------------------------ Yahoo!
