Fw: [WriteLog] Contest Reports

[RCARIELLO]

Scot, Thanks for the Reply. I tried the setup before the contest. As i was
entering the QSO's i could see it didn't help. Writelog was still giveing me
points to my score when the D class was entered. After the contest i went
through the log and marked each D contact as Unclaimed which changed the
point value to Zero. Doing a Recalculate Score did not change the Score
listed in the Band Summery box.The values for each band did reflect the
changes and the Total values did also change.
