V13.31 23rd November 2007
Resetting Dupes and Multipliers.
Some domestic contests, notably in LA, VK and ZL,
are split into two or more operating sessions,
with each session counting towards the final
score. You can work the same stations in each
period without the later QSOs being flagged as
dupes.
The SETDUPE command was introduced for V9.15 in
June 1998. It reset dupe checking and the Check
Partial display.
SETDUPE now resets multiplier and dupe checking,
and all corresponding display boxes. Once you
use this command, you must not edit QSOs from
previous sessions. If you do, there is no
guarantee that SD will track dupes and mults
correctly.
Display of non-English characters.
The character set displayed by SD, in common with
other Windows programs that run in console mode,
may not always correspond to what you type.
The CODEPAGE command lets you select alternative
character sets - known as code pages. Code page
850 is the default option for SD and is recommended
for most European and US keyboards. The code page
value is stored in SD's configuration file SD.INI.
Code page selections are ignored when they are not
supported by your PC.
CODEPAGE works with WinXP. It may not work with
earlier versions of Windows.
Regardless of the code page selected, some non-
English characters will not display correctly when
SD runs with a raster typeface.
To change the typeface, click the SD.EXE icon at
the top left of SD's window, select Properties,
then Font. Select the Lucida Console TrueType
font, and choose an appropriate typeface size such
that SD's window is as large as possible on your
screen.

logged as a dupe.
