Don,
I just opened the wpx log on this computer while I read your email. With
the keyboard focus in the Call field of the entry window, I press Ctl+G,
and absolutely nothing happens! Since Ctl+G is labeled "Go to QSO..." I
would expect to be able to enter a qso number into some dialog window - but
there is no window. If I place the cursor in the log window, selecting a
qso and then press Ctl+G the highlighting of the qso disappears but again
no input window.
Now if I try the "File, find callsign in files...", I do get a dialog
window into which I can type "ve3xd". But rather than searching the current
OPEN log, I get another dialog window that says "Choose the file to search"
and if I then select the log that I am trying to search that dialog window
goes away but NOTHING else happens.
So here I have two capabilities that I assume would "scroll" my log that do
not work for me, and one that scrolls my log when I least expect it to.?????
Very puzzling.

Jerry,
I have never had this happen either and have used WL extensively for several
years. However the action you are describing can be invoked by pressing
Ctrl-G which goes to the callsign in the log. Could you be having a keyboard
issue of some kind that is creating the problem?
