The way to do this is:

1.  rename your log and put it in a SAFE place.

2.  Create a new (empty log)

3.  Log one single QSO (with your own call, but it doesn't matter)

4.  File | Import/Export then File | Merge DX4WIN Log.  You will be
given an option what to do about duplicate QSOs.  Choose "Duplicate
QSO is ignored."

The real problem is which duplicate QSO is removed?  The one with your
QSL data, or the one you erroneously imported?  There is no way to
answer this question.
