The QSL manager data you entered is now stored as a modification to
your .CTY file. If you haven't done any other customization to your
.CTY file the easiest thing to do is to close down DX4WIN, go to
AD1C's Web site at http://www.country-files.com/ and download and
install the file, letting it overwrite your present file (it might be
a good idea to rename the existing file first so it won't disappear
entirely). When you restart DX4WIN with the new country file it
should show the correct manager information.
If you have made other modifications such as zone exceptions, other
QSL manager exceptions, etc. and want to edit your existing country
file to preserve this customization then you'll need to be sure
you've set your User Level in the Preferences to Expert. Close any
open logs and go to File --> Databases --> QSL Managers and edit the
incorrect information.
Perhaps Jim can chime in here, as he's our resident expert.
