Automatic Capitalizing State Field + one More

 

I have all the fields set to automatically capitalize the first letter on the name and QTH but not the state,? nor can find how to do it in the superbly written manual? I would also like to know how to automatically populate the name, QTH and State Fields for stations I've previously worked.? There used to be a drop down list once I entered the call of a previous QSO but no more.? I did RTFM and saw the feature but not anything about how to turn it on.? Pleae direct me to the proper page(s)? in the manual or let me know how to make the Magic happen.
?
I love this program.

You can type either upper or lower case into the STATE field. When you tab to a different field, or when you log the contact, it is automatically converted to uppercase.
?
Proper case (like the NAME field where the first letter only is uppercase) does not apply to the STATE abbreviation. You live in NJ, not Nj.

OK on the State field.? Now if I've worked a station many times before, is there a way to populate the fields without retyping all of his information???

Use "QSO mask"
Right click on Logbook entry window. Click "Setup QSO mask"

Take a peek at section 6.2.15 (page 170) of the help file. SeventyThree(s).

Re automatically populating the name, QTH or other fields, you need to use the "QSO mask" feature ... which is described in the?manual in section 6.2.15 ... but I agree it is not exactly?prominent, or is it obvious that we should be searching for "QSO mask".???

I'll try to find the time to make the QSO mask feature less obscure for the next release of the manual.? ? Thanks for the prompt, Dave, entirely justified and helpful.

Thanks to all- I really do RTFM but this tidbit eluded several searches.? Gary, you are a candidate for Ham Radio Saint Hood for writing and maintaining that incredible manual.? I wish that most commercial software was one tenth as good as your Logger32 manual.

TU to Aki and for Bob for being both? helpful and kind.
