Joe,
Thanks for the help you have given me and everyone else over the years. I am staying with DXbase because I know how to use it and t does what I want. I have been able to use the comments and special-1 fields to keep track of the NPOTA contacts I have made.
A couple of years ago I picked out a replacement logging program and imported to it. It did not have the correct number of countries worked and confirmed after the import. So I decided to stay with DXBase and not try to fix the problem in the other program.

Subject: [Dxbase] Thoughts from Joe WA6AXE - abt DXbase's future
Hello to all DXbase users!!
After knowing now that the future of DXbase is truely dead, I want
all who want to stay with DXbase2007 - knowing that the current
DXbase2007 is the final version - to know that I am staying with
DXbase2007 myself!
The reasons for my staying with DXbase2007 is that:
(1) I can help anyone else who is going to stay with DXbase2007.
(2) I can still program standalone utilities, reports, etc for DXbase2007.
(3) At my age (72 yrs) - and with my Operating habits - DXbase2007
is good enough for me. I tried all of the other logging programs and just
can not find one that is even close to what DXbase2007 offers.
I will NOT hope for any further versions of DXbase - as after Neal's ownership
of DXbase for the past going on 7years - and promises that just never come
about - I have to totally given up any hope.
NOTE!! I may be kicked-off the DXbase Reflectors, for what I am saying here
- so, when I say my 73's below - it might really be 73's.
YES! While Neal is on his vacation - if anyone has a requirement for
a DXbase2007 reg file (new or changed) - I can help you out directly.
Neal gave me the EXE program that MAKES the reg file - so that I
could help people out and not have to bug him each time that I
needed to make a REG file here at my QTH.
ALL the VERY BEST from Joe WA6AXE
73,
