[Dxbase] Frequency population lost

[Hal Perkins]

I have DXBase2003 and the FT-1000MPMkV and used to have the frequency populated OK.

Due to a lightning strike I have a new HP DC7700 computer and cannot get the frequency field to populate.

I have read Gary's (  AL9A) reply to  KK7X.  I have tried all 16 COM port options but only get "HF Radio failed to respond".  I thought that entering my rig, FT-1000MP automatically selected the right settings for Parity, Baud rate etc.?  I anyone can suggest some tests for the correct COM port or whether the data is being exported from the Tcvr., I would be most grateful. If/when I have got the freqcy. population matter sorted out, then I can see about clearing all the unwanted windows at start up!
