To all DXbase 2007 users:
I have updated my Auto-Update EXE file for DXbase 2007, to
include BOTH the 4O updates - and - the E7 Alias Map update.
There are 2 selections available - checkmark for 4O updates
and/or checkmark for E7 update.
Currently, this auto-update exe file (for the new E7 prefix),
ONLY makes an addition in your 2007 Alias Map table -- so that
ANY E7 callsign is MAPPED to T9 (the current Primary Prefix
table entry for Bosnia-Hercegovina):
The following are the conditions for use of this file:
***** INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE of this EXE file ****** :
(1) Back-up (Very Important!!) - both your 2007 Refdata.mdb file
and your 2007 Logbook.mdb file.
(2) To make sure that your logbook mdb file is NOT corrupted,
pse do the following:
(a) Initialize Stats - any ERROR? if no error - continue .. if
an error - go thru the "corrupted database repair" in the Help
Files to Repair the logbook mdb file.
(b) Go to main menu/ Output/ HF Numeric Statistics / Countries...
Deleted Countries (No or Yes - doesn't matter) /
NOTE: If you get an ERROR message at any point in this
HF Numeric Stats check -- you will have to go thru the
"corrupted database repair" in the Help Files to Repair the
logbook mdb file.
(3) BE SURE that your DXbase2007 main program is NOT imi NOT running
at all - when you run the auto-update exe file. Close DXbase down
completely - pse!
(4) Simply Un-zip the ZIP file and extract the EXE file into
your DXbase2007 main directory.
(5) Find the EXE filename/file (using Explorer or My Computer)
and double-click on the filename.. the utility should come
open/execute.. follow the dialog windows.. Once you are done with
the auto-update exe file - Open up DXbase and go to step 6.
(6) Re-initialize Stats.
Once you use the EXE program and you KNOW that you are
running DXbase2007 ALL OK - with the updates in-place, you
can and should go ahead and simply DELETE the EXE file.
ALL of the updates are embedded in the program itself - so once
you use the exe program -- you won't need it again..

Again - this is only for DXbase 2007.
