[Dxbase] Frequency population lost

Hal,
Was the radio connected to the computer when the lightening strike? You may
have lost the cat communications in the radio itself.

I have DXBase2003 and the FT-1000MPMkV and used to have the frequency
populated OK.

Due to a lightning strike I have a new HP DC7700 computer and cannot get the
frequency field to populate.

I have read Gary's ( AL9A) reply to KK7X. I have tried all 16 COM port
options but only get "HF Radio failed to respond". I thought that entering
my rig, FT-1000MP automatically selected the right settings for Parity, Baud
rate etc.? I anyone can suggest some tests for the correct COM port or
whether the data is being exported from the Tcvr., I would be most grateful.
If/when I have got the freqcy. population matter sorted out, then I can see
about clearing all the unwanted windows at start up!
