I have made a simple revision to import from WL to DX4win which includes 
"State" field. In a similar fashion  most other fields could be amended. 
Basically it involves following  the directions in 
DX4win--\Import\filters\help. Granted it is not totally clear right off the 
bat but with a little tinkering the clouds part. Anyone wanting a copy of my 
modification or info E-mail direct.
