[WriteLog] Debug of contest module

[Pat Cain, K0PC]

Gil,
You need to register the dll in order for WriteLog to see it. One way to do 
this is with regsvr32.exe. You will usually find this program in your 
Windows\System or Windows\System32 directory. The command would look 
something like:

regsvr32 C:\ham\programs\<name>.dll

Once registered, you can copy new builds of the dll over the old one. You 
can use the same program to unregister the dll if needed. Just run regsvr32 
with no arguments to see the options available.

Good luck,

Pat  KØPC
