Just because you place a checkmark next to Select Marked QSO Records,
does not mean that you want ONLY those Marked QSOs to be looked at.

Here are the HELP files words about that OPTION:


Select Marked QSO Records results in DXbase choosing any QSOs which are 
marked in the DXCC box of the "Select" field in your QSO database.  QSOs 
that are marked in the Select field will be chosen as first choice when 
the award is being computed.  However, QSOs will only be selected if 
they are needed.   Note that if the particular award category does not 
require a marked QSO then it will not be selected.  In addition, if you 
have already marked some other QSO as submitted in the Award field of 
the QSO database AND you have chosen to Exclude past submissions, DXbase 
will not select a QSO that is marked if some other QSO has already been 
submitted.
