[WriteLog] WL Editing Suggestion

[Eric Hilding <dx35@hilding.com>]

Tnx to W5GN, K4IA & VE3CWJ, it appears I will be able to manually resolve 
the WL Field Day related issues...similar to what others have experienced.

In the tedious process, I'll offer a suggestion to minimize a lot of 
redundant manual labor.

Currently:

1.  WL allows for SHIFT + ENTRY multiple manual highlighting of 
entries...one at a time, and you can right-click the mouse to change a 
whole "group" of entries to "Mark QSO as Claimed" ... ONCE the Freq/Mode 
changes have individually been made (otheerwise the Red "B" remains).

2. WL does NOT allow for SHIFT + ENTRY multiple manual highlight of entries 
to make Freq/Mode changes for a group of QSO entries, and these must be 
done one-at-a-time.

Recommendations:

1. Enable the ability to highlight multiple QSO entry lines by simply 
dragging the mouse up or down as is customary highlighting with many s/w 
programs.

2. Include a checkbox for "Mark QSO as Claimed" WITHIN the Freq/Mode dialog 
box pop up....preferably an option to GLOBALLY Mark all and not have to 
even click on a checkbox  for each entry.

3. The ideal would be to incorporate all options in the righ-click menu 
with all other editing options (freq/mode, etc.) into one "Master Editor" 
dialog box when you need to change the SAME DATA for hundreds of like-kind 
entries...for whatever reasons.  This would save c-o-n-s-i-d-e-r-a-b-l-e 
time in editing/correcting entries.

FYI & 73...
