[Dx4win] F3 and "Update QSO" button

[John Unger]

Hi Larry -

Thanks for the tip and information, but I must have an option somewhere not 
set or something. For example, when I type your call into the callsign 
field and then hit F3, all of your info is shown in the lookup window, but 
absolutely nothing in the QSO window gets populated when I hit the update 
button.... Still trying to figure out what's going on.

tnx es 73 - John, W4AU
