Entering abnormal data  for awards

Print this Topic Previous page come-back to begin of chapter Next page

Many of awards  for obtaining it , needs data from fields what is  no present in the standard ADIF.  The program AWARD_SECRETARY provides a possibility  introduction of such data. These are usually national awards issued in a country - although this is not the only one condition. Further development  AWARD_SECRETARY will be show , what awards may relate to possibilities offered by AWARD_SECRETARY. The data for these award may be stored in a table QSOS_AWARDS  especially in the following fields in a table QSOS_AWARDS

USERDEF1 to USERDEF4 - These fields are used in standard ADIF and logger's are  equipped with mechanisms to contain the user-defined data .To this moment, these fields are not used in AWARD_SECRETARY - but they are copied from the logger.
ADDITIONAL_FIELD_Nr_1_FOR_DIPLOMA to ADDITIONAL_FIELD_Nr_10_FOR_DIPLOMA These fields are not used by the logger. These are own field program AWARD_SECRETARY and will not be prescribed by content from  the logger. We must emphasize  that some of these fields are used to re-storing important fields from  Logger-and which usually are wrong , Example for  QTH for station SP9CTS QTH occurs in the form &#;WI&#;TOCH&#;OWICE P what is strong error .   It  is came from QRZ.COM , and it  is sum some Polish codes Windows 1250 and ISO8852, and yet for some code - do not know what. This code is given for this station Logger32 - but specifically the record comes from QRZ.COM. In the program there is a possibility to correct this data ,  but only manually in the module IN_POLSKA.dll . After correcting  the QTH is stored in two fields QTH and ADDITIONAL_FIELD_NR_6_FOR_DIPLOMA ie,. Let us remember that in Logger32 still exists mistake . The program AWARD_SECRETARY is so building in this way   that if we make the re-update - table QSOS_AWARDS ,  program looks to see if in the variable ADDITIONAL_FIELD_NR_6_FOR_DIPLOMA is present any  value, and if so, this value is changed to an erroneous value in the QTH. So that in the QTH from this moment when was corrected  in the module IN_POLSKA.dll QTH field have  always  the correct value. The same is true with other fields of  critical fields mismatch in the Logger.
Fields CRC described here
Polish awards provided a separate module IN_POLSKA.dll described in section Entering data abnormal for awards Polish
