[Dx4win] F8 Lookup Specific QSO by Callsign

[Vanderydt Theo]

Gents,

I reported this "issue" some weeks ago but no one answered my question.
I'm having exactly the same problem. Sometimes when using the F8 search key 
for a given callsign or DXCC entity not all data is shown.
Here is what i posted earlier:

Can someone shed a light on the F8 search function? For example, when 
hitting F8 to search all QSO’s for a given entity it never shows all 
contacts in my logbook? Same happens when searching for a specific callsign 
in my log. Today i entered a callsign in the entry window and it showed 
three previous QSO’s, when i searched for that callsign using the F8 key i 
got a message that no data could be found for this call?? Only after hitting 
ALT+F8 the previous QSO’s for that station became visible. How should i 
interprete this? When do i use the “normal” F8 key and when do i use ALT+F8. 
I do not understand the explanation in the help file, it does’nt make sence 
to me.

Grtz,

Theo ON4ATW
