[Dx4win] Another serious thing in Change QSL Routing

Wed, 26 Mar 2003 16:46:55 +0200

1. Studing the Change QSL Routing Window further I discovered another quite
remarkable and disturbing thing:

MAILED CUTOFF does not work for Managers when pushing MARK QSOs GOING TO...
button. All QSLs going to the same manager are marked again not taking
account the QSL Date. It works perfectly fine with QSOs without managers.

Example:

I had a QSO with FM5DN marked as LABEL-Y and Direct for sending card to
KU9C.

8 months ago I sent direct cards for YA5T to KU9C for wich I have not yet
received reply. They had QSL Date set at 22/07/02

Now pushing the MARK QSOs... button marked those YA5T QSOs again for direct
sending and erased the set QSL Date!!!
It also marked 40 more QSOs that had KU9C as manager for new direct sending
not depending on if they had QSL Date or not or if the Method was buro or
direct.
My MAILED CUTOFF is 10 000 that is 2 years before I was born:)

I have spent the whole day today trying to repair the damage done to my log
by using Remove... and Mark... buttons in Change QSL Routing:)

Any comments?
