<DIV><BR>If you send the same QSO number to two stations, but then when you
press [Enter] the number of one the QSOs changes, use Edit | Edit serial
number to change the "Sent No." column to match what you actually sent.
Note that the "QSO" column on the left does <I>not</I> change after you edit
the number, only the "Sent No." column (next to 59 or 599).<BR><BR>To avoid
confusing QSO number with sent serial number, it is a really good idea to hide
the QSO number column:<BR>
<OL>
<LI>Right click on the Data Entry window (or Win-Test background)
<LI>Select Log | Hide QSO numbers </LI></OL>Now your eye will only look at the
"Sent No." column when giving out serial numbers.<BR><BR>73,<BR>Bob,
