[Dx4win] Converting from DxBase to Dx4WIN

Hi All. I sent this message before, but I never actually saw it post; so I'm
sending it again.

I'm considering switching from DxBase to Dx4Win for a few reasons.

1. I like the "look" of Dx4Win. i.e. More like WriteLOG.
2. I like the previous QSO view isn't just the entire log.

What I'm really inquiring about is the qso entry process and import process.

DxBase seems to have a lot of, click this, click that, don't forget to save.
etc. etc. When I enter a QSO, I just want it to do the lookup on cdrom and
create a label for it. I want US calls to go into WAS and DX calls to count
for DXCC.

I'm just having problems with the DxBase windows "look and feel". I'm an
X-Win guy, so this suites my tastes a bit better.
How is the Dx4Win support team? Do they respond to questions?

This has probably been asked a hundred times before and I'm sorry for that.
I just want to get an idea of the general user population thinks.

Thanks.
