[WriteLog] Log Window Field Sizing?

[Keith Regli]

You can change the size, or remove fields from the entry window. Look in the
Help under "Editing QSO Exchange Fields".  Particularly the "Caption" and
"Prompt" sections.  You can generally get to the window in question by
selecting Contest/Exchange Format Setup...  Say NO to the next question and
you are in.  The Caption width determines the field width (incl trailing
spaces) and the Prompt adds or removes from the QSO Entry window.  This
won't handle the Sequence number - I don't know how to change that one.
