[Dxbase] Export to ADIF lost QSOs

Dave,

Yes, it there is a way to "fix" the G5U calls, but are you sure you want to 
do this?  It would seem better to me to have Neil add all your other calls 
to the registry file and then export a complete set of QSOs for each of the 
various calls into their own unique adi files.  These could then be uploaded 
in turn to ClubLog provided you have established a unique account there for 
each call.  After all, those who worked G5U, or one of you other calls will 
be looking in ClubLog for that call, not G3RXP!

However, if you still desire to change G5U to G3RXP simply do the following. 
First, make a backup of file of your mdb file and give it a slightly 
modified file name.  For example G3RXP_BAK.mdb.  This is important if you 
change your mind and want to go back to the beginning.

Now in DXBase go to the first record in your mdb log.  Tab over until you 
find the "Opr Call" field.  Click on that field to place your cursor in the 
correct column.  Now click on Edit/Replace...  The "Find what:" box will 
probably have your G3RXP call filled in.  Change that to G5U and then in the 
"Replace with:" box enter G3RXP.  Now click on the "Replace All" button and 
DXBase will work its way down through your mdb file and replace each G5U 
call it finds with G3RXP.  If you have other calls that you wish to replace 
go through the above steps again for each of those calls.  When finished you 
should be able to output a single adi file with the complete set of records 
in your log.  However, as stated before this may not be the wisest thing to 
do.

Joe   and Gary,

Gary I Think I have fixed some of the problem-  I had the operator on some
contests with G5U and I changed 6 of the calls and my log total went up by 6
so it looks like I need to replace 1000 odd G5U calls as operator. Is there
a fast way of doing this?

Joe can I take you on your fine offer - I know you will be able to fix those
anomalies - once again.

Im just having tea so will zip up the files after Tea.

Dave,

IF you want -- please zip-up BOTH your logbook mdb file and your Refdata.mdb
file -- and send them to me --- ALSO --  please tell me WHAT OPRCALLS are
in your reg file..   I can help you  from here and advise what is
happening...

Hello Joe, Ian and all,
Well when I initialise tables I get a error that ZK2VJ (Nuie) is not valid
so I changed the call to E6 –Maybe I havent changed the database so I think
you all have spotted the problem.

The error on E6 is coming up with –fix QSO data or update reference
database, (is that on the Files Tab on the group DxBase?) and it is ignoring
that call but would it lose 1389 QSOs?

Initialise Tables the number comes up with 33388 and reset flags comes up
with 34677,

Dave,

Do you have any qso's checked as not valid (red) in the Valid field? If you
do, those will not export to the adif file and that will cause a discrepancy
in the numbers.

Hello All,

I am trying to upload my log to Club Log using the ADIF option.

My dxbase log says I have 34677 QSOs (since 1992) but when I convert to ADIF
the ouput window says only 33388 QSOs
Where have the 1389 QSOs gone? Ive tried a number of times and cannot
understand where I am going wrong.
Im choosing the Selection wizard with no filters.


Any ideas?

Thanks
