I renamed my L32 INI file to OLD, & then copied & pasted the earlier edition into the L32 folder. Opened L32, & all seems to be working again!!
So I then opened both INI files in Notepad, & went thru each line [63 of them] to compare [visually] & I can't see any difference!! Is there a program for comparing files that might show where the fault lies??
Many thanks for the help Aki, appreciated.

As you say it may be better for you to copy/paste older Logger32.ini on current one.

JA1NLX,
Sorry for the delay in replying, life got in the way!!!!

I have 63 lines in that section of the INI file, do you mean to delete them all??  If I do this, will it mean I have to reset all those parameters??  I could print out a copy I guess, which would make it easier to "remake" the list bit by bit, testing as I go to see where the problem lies.

In the 'UPDATE' files of L32, I have a INI file dated early February, could I exchange this for my current one & see what happens??

I tried changing the Page Index & the Page Index Column numbers to what you sent me, & that didn't make any difference.

Delete Logger32.ini.

Rename Logger32.ini.OLD to Logger32.ini again.

Open Logger32.ini with text editor.

Maybe something wrong in [wndLogbookPage Settings] section.

Delete all lines in this section. Run Logger32. How now ?

[wndLogbookPage Settings]
Logbook Page Index= 0
Logbook Page Index Column= 3

That works ok. Now how do I find the difference in the two INI files??

Try with virgin Logger32.ini.

Look for Logger32.ini in the Logger32 folder. Rename it Logger32.ini.OLD.

Run Logger32. Try edit in Logbook page window. How now ?

What you see when you click any line. I see the line highlighted with Yellow back color.
This color depends on your setting.

Using version 3.50.408 on W10 Home desktop computer.

I used to be able to click on a [for instance] name in the logbook alongside a callsign, & change it for something else. Now I can't change anything on a QSO line by clicking on it.

I have a QSO with Rarotonga which shows the IOTA number as OC-124 -- it should be OC- 013 according to the QSL card that I have received, & I can't find a way of changing this.

Is anybody else seeing this behaviour of not being able to edit a line in the logbook??

Any thoughts much appreciated.
