[Dx4win] [DX4WIN] Multiple QSOs Group number

[Lee Hallin]

It looks to me (looking at the .DXL file structure) like the Group Number was increased in v8.x from the previous max of 254 to a max of 65,534!

I thought 254 groups was the limit in DX4WIN?  Although having a quick look
in the help I now can't find any reference to this.

Any how what I have been doing, working with the maybe misguided thought
that allocating groups was not limitless I have been re using the same group
number for the same contest year after year.  If I want to look at the QSO's
for that contest in any one particular year I use a date filter in the
selection editor.

Wonder if there is a fix for this?  I have more than 254 Group names. (I do
a lot of contesting!). Although I can individually change the group number
for a QSO record to be any value - Say 300,  if I try to do a Multiple QSO
operation and change the group names for a number of QSOs to anything more
than 254, then it tells me that no QSO has been changed.

I sure others must have seen this or am I doing something wrong? I have
157,000 QSOs in the file.
