In what way are they limited? You can have about 530
"countires" in CTY.DAT - but you have to make
sure you follow the same foramt or you will
only pickup every other line.
Send me a copy of the CTY.Dat that you created.

Yep - that might be a good idea.

You can put the CTY.DAT that you want to use in the
same directory that you have your logcfg.dat in and
TR should look there first.
