[Dx4win] EXT DATA -- from QRZ.com on line

Thu, 19 Feb 2004 13:06:45 -0000

Dear Joe,

Your not doing anything wrong as far as I can see! The ext data window
is (I believe) only for data relevant to a CD ROM (or such like). With
the web info for QRZ.com, it will open up a web page, as you have now,
but NOT transfer the data to the "EXT DATA" window of DX4WIN.=20

If you wanted you could set "Data Source" to "None" in set up (I assume
you don=92t have a CD callsign disk), then when you push F3, you will
still get "EXT DATA" window opening up, but just empty, no error
message. Then pushing enter opens up the web page for that callsign in
QRZ, as you have now.

Hope I haven't missed the point or misleading you!! Good luck=20

OK, I surrender.  I copied URL the addresses just as shown in the K4NR=20
screen pictorial, and I still get the same response as I obtained=20
previously:  Hitting F3 with the cursor in the QSO window switches me to

the EXT DATA window where I get an error message.  If I hit ENTER while=20
in that window, it brings up my web browser (Netscape) on the QRZ.COM=20
site with the proper call info shown there, but it does put that info=20
into the EXT DATA window in the same manner as when using a CD ROM as=20
the source.  What am I doing wrong?

73, Joe
