[Dx4win] HELP! Log gone!

[Clive GM3POI]

OK Jim,
Do you happen to know why Alt-s cannot be done automatically in the
background whenever a Q is logged. Is it a failing in the methods used in
the software? as I can't think of anything more important than being assured
that a FULL log is saved without having to do anything other than hit the
return key. Try running a pile up of callers and having to keep hitting
Alt-S to make sure it's saved in case there is a power cut or whatever. 73
