Actually, I am very pleased with DXBase the way it is - a fabulous program!
My only issue remains with installation of upgrades. Way too time
consuming. (I'm talking about HOURS!) Contrast this with a program such
as Writelog, which many of us use for contesting. An upgrade takes a few
minutes, max.
In my experience, the following DXBase upgrade issues remain unresolved:
1. If you install the new version of DXBase, and then uninstall the old
version, registry entries for CW and rotor control are deleted, causing
those features not to work. This requires reinstallation of the new
version and then configuring ALL of the user settings, a lengthy process.
2. If you uninstall the old version of DXBase before installing the new
version, then the installation won't be able to copy old INI settings for
user options, thus requiring the user to "reinvent the wheel," and
reconfigure virtually all of the user settings. Very time consuming and
annoying.
I am surprised that I haven't seen any discussion of these issues on the
reflector. Maybe I am just missing something.
Even with the upgrade hassle, I like the program so much, that I am willing
to spend the hours necessary to upgrade - but it sure would be nice to have
the ability to upgrade quickly and easily.
