Hi Dennis,
yes my biggest job is massive importing from other programs with adif file, i like Contests. It's right inserting directly in Logic there are fields auto filled from settings in used logform and via membership list or valid value linked.
Exp: I created a field called COUNTRY (will be printed into QSL) and created a database with the description of all the DXCCs as you entered in the Prefix Table. When I insert a qso with Canada Logic9 it determines the DXCC VE and fills the field COUNTRY as CANADA and so with all the other countries except for the USA where Logic puts in the country field the description of the COUNTY, STATE.
With the import from adif file the COUNTRY field is not filled and I have to do it all manually. I use the massive database commands for all the countries and for the USA every time I have to do two steps: first I insert UNITED STATES and then for each STATE the second command:
1) replace userfields with tag_edit (userfields, "COUNTRY:", "UNITED STATES") for DXCC = 'K' AND QSO_DATE> = {^ 2019-05-12}
2) replace userfields with tag_edit (userfields, "COUNTRY:", "UNITED STATES, AR") for DXCC = 'K' AND QSO_DATE> = {^ 2019-05-03} AND STATE = 'AR' AND NOT TAG_VAL (" COUNTRY: ", USERFIELDS," C ") = 'UNITED STATES,'
I believe that this function could be done with the external program FIX STUFF.
I also manage the WAIP, WAIS, ASC, SEZ which are Italian awards and every amateur has a unique fixed data unless he changes residence or club. By entering an Italian name I am going to fill this data using the membership but with the import file no.
The SWL field is automatically filled only after setting in the log form to copy the data from the previous one.
So if I have a CALL that does not respond to QSL I put NOBUREAU in the SWL field the first time and then when I see a QSO of that CALL in the OTHER QSO window I should see the writing NOBUREAU in the SWL field if the SWL field could be put in display. Now to avoid this I add NOBUREAU also in the COMMENT field but it is not right because it is often used for other things. With this system I avoid doing further research on qrz.com and saving time.
I think it's enough for now also because I don't know if I managed to explain well. (always the problem of the language eheh)
Excuse the slowness, I'd like you to be able to access my PC to see how I manage the Logic, but we're not really close and I'm not aware, apart from the teamwiever who works one way, if there is something that allows you to see what I do locally.
