Hello Pete
The recommended method for importing CT contest files is:

Go to    http://www.k1ea.com/utilities/index.htm
Download the file c2a.zip
Extract and run the conversion of the .bin file to ADIF.

In DX4WIN save and close your .dxl log.
Create a now log, and use the File | Import/Export | ADIF Import 
routine.  Now examine the new DX4WIN log for accuracy in 
date/time/prefix/exchange etc.
When you are satisfied, merge the new DX4WIN log with the main DX4WIN log.

Always make a routine of importing a contest file into a new DX4WIN log 
-not the main station log.
