[Dxbase] dx base and windows vista

Joe,
To the best of my knowledge, there are no issues with this interface and 
Vista. I suspect you have not followed the instructions in the help file to 
set this interface up. You must copy the CD data files as listed below. 
After doing that, you need to set the DXbase options in the directory tab 
and the log tab.
HamCall, or sometimes referred to as BuckMaster, contains a folder on the CD 
called ham0. This is the folder that contains all of the address related 
files.
1. Using Windows Explorer, create a new folder on your hard drive under the 
root folder called ham0. Note that this uses a numeric zero and not an 
alpha O. Do NOT place this new folder under other subfolders. It must be 
located directly under your root folder.
2. Using Windows Explorer, click on the left side on the ham0 folder of the 
CD.
3. You should see the address related files on the right. Using the main 
menu, click Edit/Select All.
4. On the main menu of Windows Explorer, click Edit/Copy
5. Click on the ham0 folder that you created in step one above.
6. On the main menu of Windows Explorer, click Edit/Paste
If the above was done correctly, you will have a folder on your hard drive 
with a full path of
 C:\ham0 where C is the designation for your hard drive
And, you will have the address related files listed on the right side of 
Windows Explorer
