Editing my view

Jim Hamlin
 

I am wanting to substitute the "other" field heading on my main screen with " Contest ID", which is way off my screen to the right, following the "PC Name" field.  However, the "Edit Fields Displayed" window doesn't show me the Contest ID field so I can reposition it.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your e-mail. It sounds like you want to rearrange your columns on the Main List view. All you have to do is scroll over to the column you want to move, and then click and drag it over to the viewable part of the screen.

Be well and enjoy!

That sounds too easy.  Will give it a try.

Hi,

I have the same question Jim does. As he said in his original question, it's not just that I want the column in the Main List View to be closer to the left, it's that I want there to be an editable box at the bottom of the screen, along with Call, Date, Band, Mode, etc. This way when I make a new contact, I can put something in that field if I want to. Right now, as far as I know, the only way to easily fill that field is to import from a contest program. But that doesn't let me record things like CWT, SST, WES, and other "unofficial" contests that don't have separate programs, and that I might want only make one or two contacts on because I happen to be passing by.

I would like "Contest ID" to be in the list of fields you can select and reposition in the "Edit Fields Displayed" dialog.

Thanks for any insights,
