Mark,

You say you downloaded "...several new certificates".  What certificates? 
You don't download certificates into DXBase, you download QSO records that 
match your upload and will now confirm those QSOs that match.  How did you 
create the file in LOTW?  Was it done from Your QSOs/Download Report?

You are using the correct utility, Non-DXBase File Import, with the file 
type set to LOTW file.  Did you identify your local mdb file for the 
Non-DXBase File Import as the data base to update?  Have you correctly 
identified the LOTW ADIF file as the "Source Database File?  Assuming you 
have downloaded the correct QSO file the import utility should update 
without a hitch.

Hello All:





I recently sent my first DXBase Log upload to the LOTW. The upload was 
successful and I received seveal new certificates. However, when I tried to 
import the LOTW   ADIF download to DXBase, all I got was a bunch of date, 
time, mode and frequency errors.   I am using the Non-DXBase File Import 
Utility with the LOTW ADIF F ile selected. Does anyone have any expeience 
with this issue that can direct me as to what I am doing wrong, or direct me 
on how to do it right?





Thanks for your help.
