[Logic] new prefix

Fri, 28 Nov 2003 11:11:08 -0500

Dennis would do well to take a look at the way DX4Win does it... It's one
area that DX4Win does a better job than Logic.

In a nutshell, it has a begin and end date for callsign mappings... very
handy if you are loading old logs...

And it has the ability to add records on the fly... for example if you work
TO4E and it comes up France... if you overide the DXCC, it remembers the
callsign from that date forward... so any future contacts with TO4E will
come up correctly. Very neat!

If you are a perfectionist, you can correct the start date, or modify an end
date.

In Logic, my French territories pfefix field is getting cluttered!!!

Hey Dennis... how about a look at this for the upcoming incredible ver 7 ;-)

Leave the Prefix mapping as is... but add a table of callsign overrides...
with auto-update of course.
