Here are the instructions for importing and using the GOLIST DX Calendar 
with DX4WIN 6.04.  Remember you must have an active GOLIST account to 
download the calendar.

First, download the current calendar from:

   http://www.golist.net/download.htm

After logging in, look for the link called:

   DX ALERT in delimited form for DX4WIN CALENDAR

Download the file from that link and save to a file.  The fist line will 
look something like:

   1/1/05 0:00:00,2/20/05 0:00:00,Cambodia,XU7POS,ON6TZ,

To import into DX4WIN, go to the main program menu then File -> 
Calendar.  When that window pops up, use the option:

   File -> Import Data mm/dd/yyyy

Navigate to the calendar file you downloaded.  If successful, the Today tab 
should show the events in the calendar.  To navigate by date, put the 
cursor in the "Date" field and use the up/down arrows to go forward or 
backward in time.

When closing the window, make sure to File -> Save Changes and Exit

When you restart DX4WIN the next time, the calender will pop up, reminding 
you of upcoming events.
