[Dx4win] Award credit - Found the problem !!!!

[Dave Sharred]

Go into Setup Parameters; Personal;   you need to set Worked cutoff and
Mailed cutoff to Zero !!

" Worked Cutoff
QSOs worked longer ago than the number of days specified will be marked as
'not worked'. Used to ignore QSOs that are not likely to be ever confirmed
because they took place too long ago. The DX Spots Window for example will
show the colors as if this QSO did not exist. A value of zero is used to
ignore the CutOff and view all QSOs as 'worked' regardless how long ago the
QSO took place.

 Mailed Cutoff
Similar as Worked Cutoff, but the QSL date is used instead of the QSO date.
QSOs for which a card has been sent longer ago than the number of days
specified will be treated as if a card was never sent. This can be used in
reports and summary windows and when marking additional QSOs for QSLing. A
value of zero is used to ignore the CutOff and view all QSLs that were
mailed as 'mailed' regardless how long ago the mailing took place."

Mine was set to 10000; bet yours was too Dennis!

Subject: [Dx4win] Award credit

A strange problem! I am loading some old logs into DX4WIN. I find that any
QSO before 1st June 1983 does not create any award credits. This is on
v7.05.04 - but I find the same effect on old versions of 6.02 and 5.03. But
if I load the log into v4.05 all the award credits appear.

I tried a test with setting up a new log on v7.05 and just entering one QSO.
With a current date, the DXCC credit appears. But if I then progressively
change the date back to 1983, the credit disappears when it goes back beyond
1/6/83. Same on v6 and v5 but OK on v4.

Anyone else come across this problem?
