LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest

LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
Hi Jordi. Also noticed this after installing Swisslog 3.99b on a new computer after hard disk failiure, and now also with 3.99c.
Syncronising LOTW, all qsls are downloaded, not just the ones since the last syncronisation, even if the "QSLs since" is checked. So the syncronisation takes a long time every time.

Any hints on how to resolve this?

RE: LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
Hi Tom,

This works well and I have never received any error report on this. Swisslog recalls the latest date when you synchronized and set it in the QSL since field. You can check that this date is used if you edit the LOTWQSLs_date.adi file. You will see a QSL SINCE line which must show exactly the same date and time and the Swisslog QSL SINCE field.

If this is not working I guess there is a problem in your system date format. Check in your Windows regional settings that the short date format match with your selected language. In case of troubles I would need to check it via Teamviewer but this must work perfectly.

RE: LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
Okay Jordi, this is what I know:

Operating system Windows 10 Pro
Version 10.0.18362 Build 18362
Operating system language: English
Region format: Finland
Short date format: 28/08/2019

Apparently there is a problem.

This is the header from the LOTWQSL_20190828.adi file:

ARRL Logbook of the World Status Report
Generated at 2019-08-28 07:00:38

<APP_LoTW_LASTQSL:19>2019-08-27 21:14:21

<APP_LoTW_NUMREC:4>6060

<eoh>

Also  my SWL_LOTW.ini file, here the date format is different:
[COMMON]
GetQSLs=1
GetQSOs=0

Finally: the snippet showing the screen in the LOTW syncronisation window:

RE: LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
If I set the regional format to English (Sweden), it works okay. I'm not is Sweden, though. And setting it to Norway messes it up again, as the date format there is different. In fact, looking through English, Both UK and US have different date and time format than 2019-08-28 15:15:05. I didn't check all other regions, but shouldn't Swisslog recognize all date and time formats? I actually thought it did?

RE: LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
Hi Tom,

The QSL since date from the QSL adif is always im English format. Check the QSL SINCE value in the SWL_LOtW.INI in the LOTW folder. The date time format is always is English format to match LOtW requirements. Please check this. I really think I need a Teamviewer session to review your windows settings. Maybe it's a Swisslog issue but nobody has reported me any similar report. Please contact me via Whatsapp to arrange a Teamviewer to check online what may happen.

RE: LOTW syncronisation downloads ALL qsls, not only latest
This was never an issue with my previous computers that had Norwegian Windows? As stated, regional format English (Sweden) works, but neither English (Finland), English (Norway), English (United States) nor English (United Kingdom) does, at least not the default settings.

For English (Finland) it seems I cannot change the time and date formatting.

The short date format that seems to work (I checked also old LOTWQSL_date.adi files) is yyyy-MM-dd, and HH:mmConfuseds, and the only regional setting I have come accross so far that is in this format as default, is Sweden!

Now, if I choose English (United States), I CAN change the settings, and I've done so to yyyy-MM-dd and HH:mmConfuseds. I'll leave it as that for the time being. I do not know how tis will affect other programs, like Excel, but we'll see. As for teamviewer session, I'll send you a Whatsapp message, mostly it will be up to you to pick a convenient time.
I have time early in the day, from 0700 UTC an onwards.

Oops. I showed my LOtW password to all users here earlier. It's changed now!. Thanks to Marc ON6CC for telling me.

Hi all,

Yes it's a bug! I have solved it and I have uploaded a patch:

www.swisslogforwindows.com/Beta/SwisslV5.exe

If your regional settings uses a dot as time separator, please download and replace this EXE in the Swisslog folder.
