Hi, Never used alltext.exe while wsjtx was running so I never ran into this 
problem. I will look into changing that. Will be going on holiday but will see 
if I can update the program before I leave. Will let you know if I did manage 
to do that. 73,  Sam W2JDB

Sam,alltext.exe works great, BUT there is one big disadvantage: Once the 
ALL.txt file is opened with alltext.exe, the ALL.TXT file is locked by Windows. 
And due to that WSJT-X is showing error messages “Cannot open …ALL.TXT” because 
the file is in use (see screen shot). Is there a fix for this (or any 
workaround)? I don’t know why, but the normal Windows editor does not lock the 
ALL.txt. file like alltxt.exe does.    73 de Uwe, DG2YCB     Von: Sam W2JDB via

Betreff: Re: [wsjt-devel] Monthly ALL.TXT archives  Hi Rich, IN the QLOGBeta 
file folder is a program called alltext.exe.I use it to search the all.txt 
file. It has various filters and presents only the lines that meet the 
criteria. I use that when I need to confirm what I think is an incomplete QSO. 
Try it. Its pretty fast.  73,  Sam W2JDB    -----Original Message-----

Subject: [wsjt-devel] Monthly ALL.TXT archivesRecently, a WSJT-X users asked me 
how to check if a QSO was actually completed. He had received a request to 
confirm a QSO which was not in his log. I pointed him at the ALL.TXT file. He 
got back to me later saying that the file size was enormous and too large for 
any of his text editors to read.   Monthly, I edit my ALL.TXT file and manually 
archive the decoded data for future use. These files have been used a number of 
times to confirm QSOs when a station that I work, usually a DXpedition, says 
I'm not in the log and I know that it was a solid QSO. I excerpt the decodes, 
showing responses to me and others, attaching the info to an email that is sent 
to him.  Unless it is kept to a reasonable size, the ALL.TXT will be useless to 
most WSJT-X ops who want to check it. Why not archive the lines of decoded data 
into a file with a file name reflecting the month that the data was decoded, 
such as:  2019-06ALL.TXT  I believe that this change should be seriously 
considered in a future release of WSJT-X.  73,Rich - K1HTV
