Re : another little problem


 

Hello Dave,

Made a successful download on XP and all is OK. The operating page
looks super, the log is excellent and I'm just reading and working my
way round.

Let me tell you about something strange ! I have a dual operating
system, Vista and XP. I cleaned out everything from Vista, checked XP
and the only thing there was the previous 3.3 help sheet. Everything on
Vista went into the recycling bin but I decided this time to download
into XP on dial-up because I prefer XP

All done successfully, checked the macro's, checked the text colour and
size, checked the log, all OK. Excellent. I'll go and enter the
operator details and what do I find, my details are already entered !

I honestly just don't understand computers !

Let me tell you something else stange, and Skip may be interested. I
had a similar thing with Digipan three years ago. The reason, I'll
never know but whenever I open Digipan the PSK tracks on 31 were wide,
but if I gave a squirt of RF the tracks became normal. I removed all
Digipan, downloaded new copies three times and still the new downloads
did the same thing, and its still like this today, I just can't stop it.

Thanks for your interest,

Kind regards, Mel G0GQK

In spite of your best clean up efforts there was still a file (or files) in the following folder (assuming you log in as Mel)

c:\Documents and Settings\Mel\fldigi.files\

The particular file that held your operator details is named "fldigi_def.xml". It uses a format similar to html and new versions can read old version definition files. The lines that are deprecated are simply ignored and not saved when you exit the program.
