>Bill, I use a .wl file called "AllDX" as my general purpose log file.  After I get so many qso's I up load them into DXBase2002.  To reuse the AllDX file, I "highlight" the first entry in the log, then I go to the last entry and holding down the "Shift Key" I highlight the last.  This will select ALL the records in the log.  Then I "Right Click" and select delete.  Writelog will tell me that the deleted qso will be gone forever.  I say Yes and the log is empty.  I then do a save.  And I am ready to go.  Works for me!!

That's exactly what I did with my .wl file from the XE contest, and it
completely trashed WriteLog to the point where I had to do a complete
uninstall and re-install.

Perhaps it works if there are only a few calls to be deleted?  With
several hundred, I wouldn't trust it.
