Hi Jim.  Thanks for your answers...

About the E7/T9 prefixes, I had only used the "DXCC plain text" list, which
has already the E7 prefix.  As I am not (yet) involved in LOTW, I will
continue using E7.

I tried to merge the countries list in various ways, and these were the
results:

1) I merged only the prefixes:  nothing was updated.  I did a binary
compare of my old cty file against the merged one (obviously, after saving
it and closing the DX4WIN).  Both were identical.

2) I merged all the databases:  everything got updated, EXCEPT the
prefixes/dates changes.

3) I first deleted a country (FJ) in my original database and then merged
all the databases:  everything got updated, but the FJ country was not
added, nor the changed dates.

I had noted only the (1) sometime ago, and since then I used to update
things by hand.  Is there a (logical) explanation for the other two
results?

Best 73 de Isidro, EA8NQ
