[Dx4win] DXCC Award Question

I have a very basic question on how DXCC awards are tracked.

Let's take a very simple example.  I have confirmed SSB contacts with 
Morocco (MO) on 9 DXCC bands.

When I look up my DXCC credits for MO, I see I have credit for Mixed, 
Phone and 9 bands.

When I go to D4W I find the nine QSOs.  Each of those nine QSOs has:

   DXCC Mixed Checked
   DXCC Band Checked
   DXCC Mode Checked

Is that correct?  My question centers around the Mixed 
status.  Should all nine QSOs have Mixed Checked or only one of 
them?  If only one, which one?  Someone I respect has told me that 
for each country, only one QSO can count for Mixed credit.  If true, 
is it the same for Mode credit?

I guess the question is should D4W reflect each QSO that qualifies 
for Mixed credit or only the ones that actually were accepted for 
Mixed credit?  I have over 1500 confirmed QSOs that qualify for Mixed 
credit, but only a 320 Mixed Country count.  Should I have 1500 QSOs 
marked "DXCC Mixed Credit" or only 320 of them?

Just when you think you know all the answers, you get old and forget 
the questions!  :(
