What are the errors? 
If you can send me this file "MWDxerDB.log" it will help me find the issues.

No, each logging / record is separate in the database so you can't edit multiples at once. I did look at adding this in but the database would not work that way.

When you select edit, it asks if you want to update this. You can then edit any of the fields you want.

I have updated my code to also include the signal level in the formula for working out the ULDXIndex number and added an option to only update this when you want to, before this it would prompt you to update the values every time you edited a record.

No plans at this stage. MWDXerDB does what I need and I am comfortable programming in JB.

Update: 29/06/2021
I have recently made a number of changes to MWDxerDB, these include:
- Daily Backups: Each day a full backup of your database is taken and saved in a seperate folder.
- Real Time Backup: A mirror file is created before all database write operations, the changes are applied to this file and then written to the main database file.
- About Screen: This has some basic details on MWDXerDB and my contact details for technical support.
- UI and Colours: A number of minor UI and colour changes have been made.
- Read Only Mode: This remove all the database editing features but still allows searches to be undertaken.
- Reports: I have made some minor changes to the report file format.
- Code Changes: I have made some general code changes and clean up of some old code that was not needed.

Hi Jorge,

At the moment it has 10 stations listed, this is to give an example of what I log, it is designed to allow you to enter your own logs of what stations you hear.
It has three search features which export the search results to a basic test file which means they can be shared online easily.

I am in the process of moving all my logs across to it, this might take a while.

MWDxerDB is a custom database program which has been designed and coded using JustBasic. It is based on the "simple database framework" which is included with JustBasic.

This program has been developed by myself over the past few years for the purpose of logging ultralight radio dxing related frequencies and information. 

MWDxerDB is freeware and freely distributable, please note that I can accept no responsibility for how it is used and any issues it might cause on your computer as setups and configurations vary so much. MWDxerDB is self contained in it's own folder and does not write any files outside it's own folder or reg keys, this means it is totally portable and will happily run off a USB key.

As my interest is logging mediumwave frequencies, I have the following fields.
Frequency / Name
Details
Notes

To protect your loggings, the program is password protected. The current password is dxing
