[Dxbase] DXB2007 Time display

[Bill Parry]

We discussed this sometime back and came to the idea that this couldn't be
fixed.  I agree that I don't like the time on my QSL cards being represented
by hhmmss, instead of just hhmm.  Seems like this would be a nice little
tweak on the new version. (It didn't use to do it on the 2005 version.) It
is clearly a function on DXB2007 because it didn't do it till I installed
2007 and everything else is the same.

I guess I'm not making my self clear.  In my DXB2005, the time in the 
on-screen log display is hours and minutes only.  In 2007, the seconds 
are also displayed.  Is this a new "feature"?   Furthermore, I copied 
the label design that I've been using for years over from 2005 to 2007. 
It's printing the time as five digits and an "x".

I can always use the full-feature help files on my XP machine, but the 
patch for Vista, at least the one I have only allows opening one page at 
a time, but no stepping back, etc.

If there's not a way to change the time back to just hour and minutes, 
is there a way to import 2007 logs back into 2005?

Thanks,

Wes
