[Dxbase] Another Prefix Update Question

Last year I had a meltdown of my DxBase 2007 installation and had to 
reinstall the software and import my backup database.  All of that is 
fine.  Since I lost all of the updates I had done to the software, via 
Joe's patches, etc. there are a number of prefixes that are not 
recognized.  E7 for example, as well as the new batch of PJ's.  Rather 
than apply the multiple patches and fixes I have been waiting for DxBase 
2010 to roll out, since I figured that would solve the problem with one 
operation.  And I would rather operate radio than play with my logging 
software.  Just my personal bias.

It has occurred to me that perhaps I should ask, as I am importing 
thousands of QSO's from N1MM and/or Writelog contesting software, if I 
may blithely ignore the errors DxBase provides me about the prefixes 
which are not recognized.  Will they be properly recognized when I 
"import" my database into the new release?

Positive news about this would be welcome!
