I recently upgraded to DXBase 2006 and I am seeing a response that I don't
expect. It's kind of confusing but I'll try to explain it and give an
example.
With the User Options Internet set for Screen Updates for DX Info Window I
double click in a Summary Window (HF-Country) band/mode box to open the
Previous QSO Window it displays the expected info for the country, band and
mode OK in the Previous QSO Window. If a new spot then comes up in the
Internet Cluster Window and the new spot is not selected in the Alerts
options to appear in the DX Info Window the Summary Window doesn't change
(as I expect) but when I double click on a band/mode box in the Summary
Window to open the Previous QSO Window again it now opens to the country,
band and mode for the new spot in the Internet Cluster Window even though
the Summary Window and DX Info Windows haven't changed.
Example - 9H1JJ spot appears in the Internet Cluster Window for 17 CW. This
is a needed spot based on my Alerts setting so the spot also appears in the
DX Info Window. The Summary window also updates to show 9H and the box for
17 CW is highlighted in bright green. I double click on any band/mode box
in the Summary Window and the Previous QSO Window opens to show my previous
9H QSO's for that band and mode. (all OK so far). Next I close the Previous
QSO Window. Now a spot for A61AJ on 20 Phone comes up in the Internet
Cluster Window. Because of the Alert settings and I have already confirmed
A6 on 20 Phone there is no change in the DX Info Window and the Summary
Window still shows the 9H info. (still all OK). Now I double click on a
band/mode box in the Summary Window to show the 9H info again and the
Previous QSO Window opens showing the A6 info for the band and mode even
though the Summary Window is till showing 9H.
Can anyone explain why this is happening? I expect that the Previous QSO
Window would always show the information for the country displayed in the
Summary Window when I double click in a band/mode box.
