[Dx4win] WPX QSL's Oldest Confirmed

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

As far as I know Bud, when you create a filter by double-clicking on an 
entry in a report, DX4WIN always goes to the earliest QSO (just as if 
you had created the filter using F8).  I believe it worked the same way 
in Version 7. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.  Submissions are the ONLY 
thing I know that picked the most recent QSO.

If you want to go to the latest QSO, after you have double-clicked in 
the report, use Control-End in the QSO window to go from the oldest 
(control-Home) to newest (control-End).
