I would be very interested in this solution also.  I have a similar
situation here.  I have DXCC from both my home California operations plus
DXCC from my portable DU (Philippines) operations.  I use group names to
separate different contests, DU QSO's from USA QSO's, etc.  But when
logging a new country and it tells me confirmed or needed I don't know if
it is confirmed or needed for USA DXCC or DU DXCC.
