[WriteLog] Readcty.v10 not working

John,

The WL Convert CTY to WriteLog file (Reacty32.exe in your WriteLog Programs 
folder) works fine.  Where your wl_cty.dat file ends up is dependent upon 
your operating system and the WL version you are running.  When you run the 
Convert CTY to WriteLog utility uncheck the Reduce to lowest runtime memory 
use and then click on Download wl_cty.dat...  On my system, Vista 32, I get 
a message that the file is being downloaded, but it doesn't go away unless I 
click on the Desktop some seconds later.  Then a second window pops up and 
says "Successfully downloaded wl_cty.dat".  Now click on the Convert 
wl_cty.dat button and the lower box in the window fills with the processed 
info.  That's it, you're done!

Now start up a WL contest module that has COUNTRY as one of the field names. 
In the CALL area type VERSION and Space to the next field.  The COUNTRY 
field should show the current name of the reference country in this update 
that Jim includes with his update notice.  There really is no need for you 
to find the actual wl_cty.dat file once it has been successfully processed. 
In my case, it ends up in C:\ProgramData\WriteLog, but that may be different 
for your OS and WL version.

73,
