[Dxbase] Mode Dupes

Hi all,
Something's happening again that I've noticed with a few previous
DXCC applications and I'm hoping to find a way around it.
I've never submitted any cards specifically for RTTY/digital award
credit, however over the years I've had a few RTTY cards come in that
I submitted for either new-band credit or all-time-new credit. As
such, I have 34 RTTY contacts considered credited by Newington. The
problem is, when I go to run an RTTY application (or rather, if I
include RTTY along with all my bands and modes), DX Base is selecting
contacts that as far as the League is concerned, I've already got
credit for them.
Is essence, what I think DX Base is doing here is crediting for band,
but not for mode as well, unless RTTY is checked when the application
is being created.
In the past, I ran into the same problem with CW contacts when I was
just getting into that mode and ready to submit my first CW DXCC
application...I wound up with about 30 or 40 duplicate cards that I
wound up paying to have entered into the system.
Is there a workaround for this, or is there a method of going in and
saying "don't bother selecting these for RTTY cuz they're already credited?"
Thanks in advance....
