[Dx4win] Problem with DXCC Submission report

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

It's a shortcoming in DX4WIN.  For a QSO to be considered "Checked", the Award flag must be set to Checked, but *ALSO* the QSO must be marked Confirmed.  When you set your Preference to "Upl Conf", then all the QSOs that were marked Checked, but confirmed by paper QSL, are no longer considered checked, since they are no longer confirmed (unless both confirmed by QSL *and* LoTW).

Does that make sense?  I have asked Paul to change this, but no feedback as of yet.

Subject: [Dx4win] Problem with DXCC Submission report

I'm trying to generate a Submission report based on LoTW confirmations 
only.  In the past I believe I have been able to set my Preferences>QSO 
and set the Confirmed QSO's parameter to Upload Conf.  And after saving 
the Preferences I could generate a DXCC Submission report which would 
list only those QSO's that could be submitted and confirmed via LoTW. 
Doing that under 7.04.04 now generates a listing that is several times 
in excess of those that are newly eligible for LoTW confirmation.  In 
many cases DX4WIN is picking QSO's for entities that have already been 
Checked.  And BTW, the listing if I set Card in Hand is also incorrect. 
But setting to Card or Upload seems to be correct.

Is this a problem with 7.04.04 or is my memory faulty on what I think I 
was able to do prior to 7.04?
