[Dxbase] SPECIAL 2

[Joe WA6AXE]

Ron,

One thing that you could do is to EXPORT the QSOs (from one of your QTHs) using
the Selection Wizard adif routine .. You will have to be able to identify the DATE
RANGE for this..

DO this for EACH of you QTH's ..

Then bring up a VirginDB and IMPORT (Non-DXB Import) each of those ADIF files
and when you bring up the Non-DXB Import -- fill-in the Option Special-2 DEFAULT
words .. you will then be able to make a new mdb file of all of your QSOs -- WITH NOW
the SPecial-2 filled-in ...  

Just MAKE SURE that you have not used the Special-2 column for anything else.

This should save you the time you are wanting.

> I want to add in the "DEFAULT SPECIAL 2" column box,  the name of the various QTH towns I operated from. I want to do this for 22,000 QSOs already in DXbase2007.  I know I can cut & paste them in one box at a time 22,00 times . . . . but is there a tricky way to do this more quickly? Too bad ya can't select multiple field boxes in the column and then paste into all at one time. Anyyou have suggestions?
