Message-ID: <000001cffb70$19272b20$4b758160$@mchsi.com> I have Dxbase 2007 running on 2 machines - OS is 8.1 on one and XP on the other. I have VE7CC configured the same on both machines (filtered to select only North American originating spots - K & VE). In the VE7CC menu "DX Display Format" I have "Orig State/Province" as one of the selections. In the DXb internet cluster window, the XP machine lists the originator's state to the right of the "time" column. The 8.1 machine shows nothing to the right of the "time" column.

When I saw more support coming from users like Joe than Neal I decided to go to different software years ago. If a new version ever came out I would have a look because I really liked DXBase. One of the biggest things I liked about it was the ability for users to create their own reports and I worked close with Joe for a while and we created some really handy reports. That's something I miss with the software I'm using now but I wanted to use software that was evolving and DXBase went stagnant with the change in ownership. Lots of promises but little else. 73, Don VA7ZT On Mon, Nov 17, 2014 at 8:09 AM, Bob Morrow wrote: > Dito! > > > > > Neal, > > It has been 5 years since you bought DXbase from Jack .. > > The "Serious" question about Clublog versus DXbase Refdata is nothing but > "chatter"..

This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want, simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column of your logbook mdb file to FK and then when the pop-up asks you if you want to save this TX8C mapped to FK -- say YES/OK ---- Then delete that dummy QSO .. The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ... 73 Joe WA6AXE From aj9c at indy.rr.com Mon Nov 24 16:01:15 2014 From: aj9c at indy.rr.com (Mike Kasrich) Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 16:01:15 -0500 Subject: [Dxbase] win7 Message-ID: <54739C9B.4090903@indy.rr.com> Does one need a different version of DXbase to run on windows 7?

Serious would be a new version of DXbase Message-ID: <20141128063828.80EAA10E@m0005296.ppops.net> DXbase was pricey when I bought my first copy but it certainly met my needs. Using the mdb format certainly made it something I haven't had a problem entering over 100,000 QSOs in the last decade knowing that they would be portable if I had to move them. I look at my aging setup which uses serial and parallel port control of radios and SO2R radio switching and know that the day is coming when I am going to have to change out something. That is going to result in a complete revamp of the station including the software. It currently works but a new radio will mean USB control, that will mean a new computer, which means a new OS which will probably result in another logging program. Heck, I only run Windows to run DXbase. My contest software is still DOS based. It's a classic turn of the millennium station. It does what it was designed to do and nothing more. That computer is not networked and doesn't do anything but control a station and log QSOs. I am not the type of person who has to have the latest version of anything unless it provides some advantage that I actually use. New versions would have to take advantage of the new OS's. Multiple display capability, networking, remote access via network control of station functions (this would really make it worthwhile in my situation giving myself and others access to the station via internet) and it would really be a bonus if it had a good contest logger built into it. New versions would probably also have a yearly license and accept VISA on the internet to renew it. I almost feel bad for software developers. A parent only has to support their child for 18 years. Software never becomes self supportive. So here I am, keeping the station running with what I have. Trying to make it work until I make the next move to a new QTH and revamp the whole thing from scratch.

Serious would be a new version of DXbase Neal Message-ID: <546B8AB2.6080500 at bellsouth.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I am happy with DXB in its present form. However, I wouldn't mind seeing it become friendly with the new operating systems. I'm sure it would make our lives and Neal's life easier too. Neal came to my aid when I upgraded to Windows 7. I never would have figured it out. What would you like to see in the BRAND NEW VERSION in terms of features?

Joe has kept DXbase alive for many years, even long before Neil arrived on the scene. Joe many years ago, called me after I posted something about a problem I was having and confirmed what I was seeing happen erroneously with data in my MDB and finally resolved an old issue. Joe also was and still is the reports and label design expert. That module is perhaps why I've stuck with DXB for 20 years. I ran a DOS version initially. >> >> Thanks Neil and Joe!
