Ron,

Should be simple.  Go to Tools/Selection Wizard...  On the Selection Wizard 
screen set the Output Type drop box to "ADIF File" and then click on the 
Test only box.  Now click on the QSO Filters button where you will be 
presented a variety of filter options.  Make sure all the check boxes are 
cleared.  Now in the far right hand side column click the check box for 
Special - 2 = and type SKCC into the adjacent box.  Now click on OK to 
return to the main Selection Wizard screen.  Double check that the Test only 
box is checked and then click on Start.

A window will open asking you to provide a File name for the ADIF file you 
intend to create.  Give it a meaningful name like "SKCC extract" and click 
on Open.  Now a window will tell you "This file doesn't exist" and ask if 
you want to "Create this file?".  Click on Yes and the same window will open 
and ask you the question a second time.  This is a bug in DXBase, just 
ignore it and answer Yes again.  Finally a window will open and ask if you 
are going to submit this file to LOTW and do you want to mark your records 
in DXBase that these records have been exported to LOTW?  Answer No to this 
one and the Test run of your selection filter will begin.

As the Wizard works its way through your data base file it shows the 
progress and how many QSO Records matching the selection filter have been 
found so far.  At the end of the Test run look at how many QSO Records were 
found.  If this seems reasonable uncheck the Test only box and Start the 
process again.  This time a window will open showing you a list of target 
file names.  Since your Test run created an empty SKCC extract file, select 
that file name.  Again the window asking about marking the records as being 
exported to LOTW will open and again click No.  This time the Wizard will 
actually export all the SKCC records found and save them in your SKCC 
extract adi file.  You can now import this file into your SKCC logger.

Can someone help me?



In  my  DXbase2007 master file I want to select a group of QSO's identified
as  SKCC in the Special-2 Column and export them in an adi file then import
them into my SKCC logging software. I've tried several methods
unsuccessfully. Can someone tell me how to do this?



Thanks . . .
