ADIF files are text files. You can edit them with any text editor, including Notepad.
?
To edit a text file whose filename does not end in .txt, start Notepad, use the File > Open menu item in Notepad, then near the bottom to the right of the filename, in the box that says "Text Documents (*.txt)", click on the down arrow at the right-hand end of the box and change it to "All Files (*.*)", then find the file and open it. When saving the file using the File > Save As menu item, in the box immediately below the file name called "Save as type:", make the same change to prevent Notepad from tacking an extraneous .txt onto the filename.
?
To attach the contents of a small text file to a message here, simply open the file in Notepad, select the part you want to attach, and copy and paste it into the text of the message.

Well, isn't this an adventure, grin.? I've made suggested changes to this single log entry.

First, I tried to make the changes in the error report and upload that, but it is a text file, not ADIF.
?
Second, I loaded the ADIF file into ADIF Master, searched for the entry for KR1STA and saved that single entry into a new ADIF file, and made changes there and tried to import the ADIF into DXKeeper.? The result was an error text file.? Error file says:? "no valid ADIF records found"? I rechecked the ADIF Master entry and all seemed OK, and the ADIF check routine in ADIF Master did not find an error.

I was going to attach the ADIF file for the single entry but I don't find a way to link files here, and I don't know how to convert it to a text file.

Looking for help.
