[Dx4win] Filter Selection

I have consolidated my logs from various dx-peditions together with my home
logs into one big log called "Alllogs" and I have tagged each entry with the
call I worked under using the Group Names facility.
This is really neat as it allows me to see all of my previous qsos with a
station regardless of where I was operating in the "Other QSOs" window. It
also provides a very efficient way of dealing with incoming QSL cards as I
no longer have to sort these by my call before entering the info and
printing lables. As I print the "Group Name" on each lable I can print out
lables for all my calls on a single sheet. I just have to peel them off and
make sure I stick 'em on the right card!
The only rub with this is that when I am using DX4WIN on the bands I want to
see whether I have worked a country from the location I am in, which is
mostly 5B4 at the moment. When I load up DX4WIN it defaults to no filters,
so my country check info is against my combined log file rather than 5B4. I
have to get around this by selecting my "Cyprus" filter which consolidates
my 5B4AGN, 5B4/G3ZEM & P3F parts of Alllogs to give me what I want.
Is there any way DX4WIN can be set to default to an already specified filter
on start up? In this case "Cyprus". Setting up the filter every time I
start up DX4WIN is becoming a bit of a chore.
Thanks
