[Dxbase] Field Order help

[Gary AL9A]

Jon,

I'm running DXB2006, but I think things should work the same for this.  When 
you start DXB take a second and look at the first window that pops up titled 
"Select Database and Field Layout".  There are two entry lines.  The first 
one is the Database Path.  The second entry line is "QSO Log Field Layout". 
This is where you enter the path to your CO file.  Click on the ... box and 
browse to the file.  UNLESS you've earlier checked the box that says "Do not 
ask me this again".  There is a procedure to get this window back if you 
have previously selected the 'do not ask' box, but I don't remember it right 
off the top of my head.  Check the Help file if necessary.

73,
Gary AL9A
