Hi Rick,
I think you just need to use a master data base converter.
If you go to www.dxatlas.com and look for addition programmes in the
programmers corner you should be able to find a programme called MASTER DATA
EDITOR. I use it to create and maintain my own data base(s) for WriteLog.
Give it a go,
Eric - VE3GSI

->
->
-> In order to save even more typing (subject to any changes
-> needed or error
-> corrections during a QSO), I would like to pre-fill
-> (populate) the FD
-> section field based upon the callsign entered. My master
-> list here output
-> here can either be in a true ascii comma delimited .csv format or
-> tab-delimited .txt file...or .dbf, etc.
->
-> What I am looking for is the step-by-step process to:
->
-> 1. Convert my own .csv, .txt, .dbf, etc. callsign + section
-> name DB to
-> whatever file format it is that works with WriteLog (TR uses
-> TRMASTER.DTA
-> which allows importing of a .csv file).
->
-> 2. The procedure for installing & configuring the
-> (converted) master list
-> into WriteLog.
->
-> 3. What to click on within WriteLog to make pre-fill
-> (populate) the section
-> field upon entry of a callsign (this happens automatically
-> once a station
-> has been worked on another band/mode).
->
-> Tnx for any info/solutions.
->
-> 73...

-> Rick, K6VVA
