Referring to my previous post, the problem:
- When opening any CSV file generated by the DX4WIN, the FR/J Juan de
Nova; Europe row was left blank, e.g. the data mysteriously disappeared.
- Jim found out what was causing the problem: it was the semicolon ";"
between "Nova" and "Europe". Somehow the Excel truncated the rest of the
line when changing text to columns. Of course this was not a DX4WIN problem.
The solution: open the CSV with the Windows Notepad, put " " around the
country name, select all (CTL-A) then past (CTL-V) into the spreadsheet.
It might be a good idea if the DX4WIN put " " around the country name as
shown here: "Juan de Nova; Europe". May I include this into the wish list?
Thank you for the help Jim.
