[Dx4win] LoTW Import Problem

[Duane A Calvin]

Bruce,
        I've been doing LOTW with DX4WIN since LOTW became available, and
I have never seen the problem you describe.  Off the top of my head, I
don't know what could be causing the problem.  I have lots of "Upload
Cfm" flags set to "Y" without the corresponding paper QSL flag.  There
must be something else going on with your import.  Have you checked to
make sure dates/times correctly match (they should, but have you
checked?).  

        73,  Duane
