I use the general log (called DX in N1MM+) for making non-contest QSOs 
during the contest.  I normally leave one in my operating log database, 
just in case.  If I need to make a non-contest QSO, I switch over to the 
DX log, log it, and then switch back over to my contest log.  The first 
time, it's Alt-F O, then select the DX contest.  Make the QSO, log it, 
and Alf-F 2 will return you to your contest log.  If you've done it 
already, then the DX log is available with an Alt-F 2 (unless you're 
working more than one contest at once, in which case you're probably 
used to 'dancing on the Alt-F key', as I call it).
