[Dxbase] Something stupid that I have done in the past

This is just an FYI regarding a mistake that I was making and it was messing
up the prefix column in my records.
Sometimes I would hear a station and enter it into DXBase. I do this to get
the record of whether I have worked the station before and on which bands.
If I accidentally entered the call wrong or copied the call wrong I would
correct the call in the callsign column.. If you hit enter again on that
line it will correct the country that is entered. This unfortunately does
NOT fix the prefix column and leaves the original prefix entered. I suppose
this is no big deal but it does screw up the prefix totals for the Prefix
award.
I am probably the only person that has done this but just in case there is
another dummy out there you might want to be careful.
