Hi sandy,
I had tried to do this like you comment, and this work fine. In the
future is possible that each ham want to have independient database for
each award. Only it´s an idea.
Thank´s

Valentin,

In DXbase 2001 and 2002, we added some capabilities that were intended
to handle this kind of thing to some degree.

1.  We added the Special-1 and Special-2 fields.  These two fields can
accept up to ten alpha/num characters of your choosing.  So you could
identify each award separately with an entry of your choosing in the
Special1 and 2 fields.  We also added two user checkbox fields User1 and
User2 in the Award, Category, and Select fields of the QSO log.  These
two fields are simple yes/no checkbox entries. 2.  We added these fields
as filters in the DXbase Wizard.  So, you could extract a portion of
your log using the Wizard and whatever filters you want to set. 3.  We
added an Award module for the Special fields and allow the record
selection to be based on your entire QSO log or based on the extracted
data from the DXbase Wizard.

I don't know if these "tools" handle everything, but I believe they
allow for most situations.

Maybe this helps,
Sandy

Jack,
Did you think to add in the future version of the program the posibility
to add customized awards? For example, In USA you have the WAS award,
here, in Spain we have a similar award, the DME (all the spanish
communities), the TPE (all spanish provinces). Each ham, each Country o
each amateur radio assiciation have his own award and  I think that is a
good  feature for the future versions of DXBase. How ??? The answer we
ccould find here, with the opinion of the dxbase users.

Greetings
