I haven't used ACL for about a year to log POTA activations. Note: I don't have the latest version.? That said, I have many dozen activations successfully logged.. but, I'm sure I've messed up the process by not correctly logging my most recent activations.? BTW, I'm generally an Mac user.. but bought this PC just for N3FJP.? I didn't want to post to Scott as they are busy peeps.
I'm hoping someone will take my under their wing.. possibly via Zoom or? a phone conversation.
Here is what the current issues are:
1.? I've "lost" logs.. as mentioned, due to forgetting how to save before converting to ADIF.? Saving probably wasn't necessary.. but I wanted to save the files to Desktop using "save as"?
? ? ?I think that was wrong.? Very old age issues.
2.? My last attempt to log failed and I can't even shut down ACL.
? ? ?I keep getting a popup "Unable to Retrieve Data"? I couldn't retrieve requested data in GetDataset.. etc"? ?giving me an unrecognized database format.
? ? ?'C:\Users\chipz\OneDrive\Desktop\K=8665 Sprague Lake.mdb' followed by the same without the quotes.
As it stands, even with ACL closed, as long as the laptop is open I continually get repeated popup.. as above.. I hit ESC.. but they keep coming until the desktop is covered with them.
Saying OK or clicking "x" has no effect.
I can provide more info as to my attempts to locate 'missing' files.. but, I fear they are gone.
Anyone?
Thanks, Bill WA7WS
