[Dxbase] New Lighthouses report being made (in process now) by Joe WA6AXE

[Joseph Glockner]

To all:

I am right now working on a  "lighthouse" report ... The area of
the logbook that I am "right now" looking at for the "lighthouse
info" is in the "Notes" field ...

Such as -- the entry typed into the Notes field by the user would
look like this:

LH USA-1129


or it could look like this:


Mobile at LH ITA-001


NOTE:  No matter where in the Notes field you place the info, as
long as the  two characters of  LH  are there - followed immediately
by the Lighthouse number   ITA-001   -- the report will find the
info .. BUT, only if you type them in as noted..


I am "hand-pasting"   ALL 11,283  Lighthouses/Lightships  numbers
and names  into this report ... There are currently  212 countries
in the Lighthouse/Lightship database..


If anyone out there is interested in this report - or - thinks
they will use it (even if not regularly) -- AND -- you are NOT
going to put the Lighthouse info into the Notes field -- PSE,
tell me where you plan to put that info - so that I can program
to be able to find the info in YOUR logbook...

Currently, John OZ4RT, has been helping me (in a big way!!).. Tnx
John!!  The current structure of the Report (which I am still
working on) is just about the SAME way that John's report looks.

73 to all!
