[DXBase] CW keying problem solved

Tue, 3 Feb 2004 11:13:05 -0700

Hi All

I am having the same problem as Jim.  I can change the ini file, but the
Dxb98 does not appear in "Tools->Options->User 
Options->CW"  I see only "Dxb24" options.  Any help out there?

I have had the same problem as Paul. This change did not work for me.

I used Wordpad and Notepad to edit the DXB2004.ini file to say, "DXPORT 
=98 COM=1". I have tried restarting DXbase 2004, and and additionally 
rebooting the computer. When I go to  "Tools->Options->User 
Options->CW"  I see only "Dxb24" options. I think that this part of the 
menu resets the DXbase2004.ini file. But since I never see Dxb98 as an 
option, I have never changed it.

When I exit DXbase and reboot, the original DXPORT=24 reappears in the 
DXbase2004.ini file.

Is this a bug? Has anyone been able to get DXbase 2004 to work on CW?
TIA.
