[Dxbase] Finding a call from a partial

[Gary AL9A]

Allan,

If you logged a call with the Prefix 4W or FJ you should try searching the 
Prefix field of your log.  Go to the first record in your log and click on 
the first Prefix you find there.  Then click on Edit/Find and enter 4W in 
the Find what: box.  Then click the Find Next button and the search will go 
through all your records until it finds the 4W Prefix, assuming one is there 
to be found.  If you find it, go back to the first record and do the same 
thing to search for FJ.

73,
Gary AL9A
