This is just a guess....

I'm using DX4WIN version 9.09.  When I type F8 and then type AF012
into the IOTA field, it also automatically fills in the IOTA Island as
"Juan de Nova".  It's possible that when you search, your FR/J QSOs
either have nothing, or something other than "Juan de Nova" in the
IOTA Island field.

If I were you, I would use F8 search and put FR/J in the Prefix field
instead.  What is found in the IOTA and IOTA Island fields for each of
those QSOs?  I would set each QSO to the correct IOTA and Island,
saving the changes of course.

Now does searching for AF012 work?
