[Dx4win] CW DXCC dilemma

I also asked about this several years ago; however, it really did not turn
out to be much of a problem.

Initially, I selected the valid qso's for submittal.  The very few that were
left were then simply marked as invalid and in the notes as invalid for CW
DXCC.

My cw qso's went back to 1955 and I only wound up with a handful of them
marked as invalid.  I doubt that it would be worthwhile for Paul to fix as I
have been through the logic Paul uses for marking qso's for DXCC submittal
and there simply are no dates in them.  The logic is pretty straightforward
and that is why the searches are so fast.  I did not think of using my group
selections, and I would not have had to mark a few cards as invalid.

Subject: [Dx4win] CW DXCC dilemma

If you use DX4WIN for tracking DXCC totals, I wonder how you handle this
situation:

A DX station (new country) was worked in 1973 on 40M CW.  The station is
credited by ARRL for the mixed DXCC, but not CW DXCC as the cutoff for CW
DXCC is 1975.  So the question is: how to  mark the QSO so that DX4WIN shows
it as "checked" for Mixed DXCC, but not "checked" for CW DXCC?  I don't even
want it to show up in DX4WIN as confirmed for CW, or I won't get an accurate
spot color.  What to do?
