Hi WriteLog Users,
I am having a problem updating my country files on my Windows 7, 64 bit computer. The version of WriteLog I'm using is 10.77H. I placed the latest downloaded wl_cty.dat into the
c:/program data/writelog file, then ran reacty32.exe from the location
c:/program files(x86)/writelog/programs
I then opened WriteLog, and put in GB0PLB, which should show Wales as the country, and it showed England. Then I tried II0IDP, which should be Sardinia,and it shows Italy. So I know the file did not update.
I also tried downloading the latest WlWebupdate.zip file. I unzipped the file contents into the c:/program data/writelog file location, then checked to see if the file updated. It did not.
I have an older computer running Windows XP, and WriteLog version 10.30B, and it updates the country files very nicely. So I copied the four files that React32.exe updates from the XP computer:
DXCCDOS.dat
DXCCWAE.dat
CQZONE.dat
ITUZone.dat
I placed the four files into the location on the Windows 7 computer:
c:/program data/writelog
Still no update! I tried placing the four files into the location:
c:/program files(x86)/writelog/programs
Still no update of the country files.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
