Joe,

Well I'll be darned!  Been using DXBase since Chippy was a punk and never 
knew about this feature on the slider.  Never noticed it because I rarely 
sort a column by clicking in the header name.  It does work for me for both 
the Date and Callsign fields.  At least it does now on my 32 bit Vista 
machine.  I will shortly be upgrading to a new PC with Win 10 so will have 
to see how that install goes.  BTW, what is the link to download the tips on 
installing DXBase 2007 on a 64 bit machine with Win 10 ?

ALL:

Sorry that the terminology I used was confusing.. I was simply using Knut's 
word.

YES!!   IF you SORT the Log Window by clicking on the CALLSIGN column HEADER 
(this word
Callsign is in the TAN/GRAY area above the actual callsign column) - the 
Right-Hand SLIDER will then
SHOW the CALLSIGNS - as you slide down thru the QSOs..

IF you SORT the Log Window by clicking on the DATE column Header - the 
Right-Hand SLIDER
will SHOW the DATES - as you slide down thru QSOs.

We normally see DATES in the Right-Hand SLIDER, because we normally have our 
logbook
SORTED in DATE order...

Hope that this helps!

That was my first thought too. But Joe's comments about it depending upon
what column you last clicked on has me confused. No matter what column I
click on my glider/slider always shows the same thing - the row number.

I suspect glider is aka slider is aka scroll bar - all the way on the right
of the window that if you click on it and hold the click, it slides, glides
or scrolls up and down through QSO records:)
