[Dxbase] Online DXCC website appears OK now -- Joe's ADI file maker is now available agn

[Gary AL9A]

Being a victim of my own inertia I am still running DXB2006 and thus cannot 
use Joe's ongoing development efforts for 2007 users.  However, I wanted to 
report my success with 2006 in generating a suitable aidf file for 
submission to the Online DXCC Application process

I knew from running Output/Awards/DXCC that I had some Phone cards in the 
log that were not yet included in previous DXCC submissions, both card and 
LOTW.  I did this by running Output/Awards/DXCC Award Submission with the 
following checked:  Phone, QSO Log, Cards only, Exclude Past Submissions, 
Select Marked QSO Records and Select Deleted Countries.  When run this tool 
indicated I had 31 QSO records flagged that met the selection parameters.

I printed the resulting worksheet and dug into my QSL card boxes to find the 
cards in question.  In this process I found two cards that should not have 
been selected because they were already confirmed via LOTW and the Select 
fields had not been cleared in DXB as they should have been.  Now to produce 
an adif that contained the 29 cards.  I used the Selection Wizard to Output 
an ADIF File based on the following QSO filters:  Mode=Phone, Confirm=Card, 
Select=DXCC.  That produced the file containing the 29 cards I wanted.  I 
then went to the ARRL Online DXCC Application web site and went through the 
process.  When I got to the upload an adif file step it went without a hitch 
at all and the resulting DXCC Record Sheet was in the correct order matching 
the adif file.  Sure saves a lot of typing and typos!

My only concern with the process is that after printing out the DXCC Record 
Sheet one of the cards, DX0K for Spratly Is., is printed in bold italics. 
None of the others printed this way and it didn't show that way in the 
online record sheet.  Not sure if this indicates a problem for this card or 
not.  I've emailed my local card checker and will set up a drop off of my 
paper work and cards shortly.  Just wanted to let the group know that it is 
possible to upload the card info even if you are running a non-2007 version 
of DXB.
