[Dxbase] 4O - Montenegro : changes that will be made to theRefdata and Logbook mdb files

Mon May 21 23:10:10 EDT 2007

Rick,
Just my own opinion, but the method used by each of the
logging s/w programs are totally unique - each with it's
own advantages. For DXbase, using the method that Jack
has for us, gives the DXbase user the total flexibility
of entering the new / modified data "immediately" - without
waiting for an updated country file. Once the DXbase user
finds out about something new / changed - within minutes,
they can have the entries made and save!!!
As with everything dealing with the logging programs, each
user will have their own preferences!
