[WriteLog] Dupes file for JARTS log submission?

It's not like that, Jerry.  Use File|Export and take the choice with "dup"
in it to get the "dupe" file.  Don't be freaked out when you first look at
the file - There are huge amounts of white space between the bands.  I only
had 1 QSO on 80, so when I first look at my dup file, I only see that one
QSO.  However, if you scroll down far enough, you will then find your 40M
QSOs etc.  I simply removed most of the white space between bands to make it
more clear for them to look at.

I think this is called a dupe sheet after the style we used to use when
logging was done on paper.  You recorded every call you worked by call area
and alphabet, and looked at it each time to make sure each q was not a dupe.
Thus I think the "dup" file created by Writelog is actually a list of unique
calls worked on each band, i.e. it is NOT a list of your dupe contacts.
Hope this helps.  73
