[Dx4win] QSO confirmed status (not) on ADIF export.

[AC0W]

Dave, 

# 1 May be a Windows problem. I've had the same problem in the past with DX4WIN and other software specifically with help files after an update. Windows is not giving DX4WIN permission to open the help file.

There are a couple ways to fix. Easiest is to find the help file in the v7 folder. Double click on it to open it up. A pop up box may appear asking if you want to open the file (or something like that), click yes or okay. Now you can close and it should work from DX4WIN.

I have just upgraded from V6 to V7 with the V7 installed in a new folder.

Question 1)
The "HELP" menu item does not work. On clicking I get a WARNING msg
     Could not get help contents
     Error = 0
     Msg = The operation completed successfully  !!!!!!!!!!

If I click on Search for Help On...   I get nothing at all.

This might help my main problem if I could get at the help...
Do I need to do something to activate the Help?

Question 2)
I think the ADIF field that gives the QSO confirmed status  is 
called  <qsl_rcvd:1>
   Is this correct?

Question 3)
I exported my log a few weeks ago with V6 and the the few QSOs that I 
have card confirmations for were apparently exported correctly as the 
receiving application shows them as confirmed.
I have since upgraded to V7
I have now created a dummy log and done 4 exports
a)  No confirmations in DX4Win
b)  card confirmation
c)  upload confirmation
d)  both confirmations
I have changed the QSO preferences each time accordingly
The DXCC summary report shows the correct data for each case.
But all four ADIF exports have the item..    <qsl_rcvd:1>N<eor>

So if I am looking at the correct ADIF item I am not getting any 
"Yes" confirmations exported in any of the cases.

Any help to solve this would be appreciated?
Has something in this area changed from V6 to V7?

73,
Dave
