Bud,
I think I will accept your suggestion.
Now that I have opened TQSL via desktop icon and did a search of state!
It is a very easy procedure.

Only have 17 Emails to send :)

There are a few who admitted they didn't know where to go to add their state, etc.

Thanks for the tip. Maybe I can increase my returns by 10% but everyone else's by 50% :) :) :)!!

Have fun!
73, Rick -N8XI

Hi Rick,

I think I understand your question - your LoTW downloads come back without a state specified for the station that you worked?

If so, that is a function of each person's LoTW setup and not of the logging program.  It is done in the TQSL program. 

I would suggest that you write a very simple tutorial that explains how to update your state, grid, county zone, whatever, in TQSL and send it to those people.  You might get a 10% improvement on your LoTW returns  :)
