Hi Dennis,
can I rename an userfield name in the archive and save the contents?
I would like change the name "I PROV" into "WAIP".
Need it an external program to access in the archive? Because i cannot find anything in the Logic.
Thanks

Hi--

It is an easy one-step process. Go to tools/setup/log fields. Navigate to I PROV. Click RENAME USER DEFINED FIELD (a button at the bottom of the window). Rename to WAIP.

The usual disclaimer, make a backup first. Just copy the whole LOGic folder.

Tnx & 73,

Dennis WN4AZY

Hi Dennis,
look this screenshot thanks.
Is there an external program to delete the space as | CQ:15| ITU:28| and delete |LAT:xxxxx|LON:xxxxx| to save record space??
Thanks

Sorry for the problem.

I was wrong. You only have to do step 2. I corrected the post. Still, make a backup!

This command in tools/advanced/database commands should remove the extra space. MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!

USE LOG
REPLACE ALL USERFIELDS WITH STRTRAN(USERFIELDS, "| ", "|")

To delete a user-defined field, click DATABASE FILES/MASS CHANGE/REPLACE USER-DEFINED FIELD CONTENTS. The WITH is just an empty string "". This will delete the data and tag. See this video for more on mass change:

Tnx & 73,
