Trouble loading a QSL format

PROBLEM: The QSL format somehow gets an invalid filename set so it can't load the format file nor can you get into the format program.

FIX: Clear out the format settings in the file LOGM.DAT.

HOW: Use the file FMTCLEAR.EXE.

  1. The utility program FMTCLEAR.EXE is supplied with Master Log version 3.42 and after. If you don't have a copy download one first.

  2. Copy the file FMTCLEAR.EXE to the directory that contains LOGM.DAT (usually \LOG\DATA).
    eg. COPY A:FMTCLEAR.EXE C:\LOG\DATA <ENTER>
  3. Move to the data directory on your hard disk.
    eg. CD \LOG\DATA <ENTER>
  4. Execute FMTCLEAR.EXE.
    type FMTCLEAR <ENTER>
  5. Your format settings will be cleared (not the formats themselves). You need to re-select your desired formats from the Format Window inside the program.
