need help recovering qsos in rumlogng after clicking "new"

[w9nc]

Hi,

I've been using rumlogng for about 3-4 months and have really enjoyed it. I pulled in my old logs dating back to 2006, so I had maybe a few thousand qsos in the log. Today I decided to participate in the arrl dx contest, so I clicked logbook->new and entered "arrl dx contest 2013". As you can see, the file "arrl dx contest 2012.rlog" was created in my .tqsl directory. But I seem to have lost my data since there is no .rlog file for my old qso data. The file log.0000000007 does seem to have qso data in it, but it's binary and I don't know how to retrieve it.

Thanks for your help.

Pete

The .tqsl folder is a hidden folder used by the TQSL app only. You should never put user documents in it!
I'm sure, your original log file is te the place where you have saved it before.

When I clicked "Logbook->New" the directory chosen by rumlogng was the .tqsl directory by default.
I'm thinking that maybe I didn't ever click Logbook->New and just started using the program.
So I'm not sure if I ever saved it. I has to be saved somewhere though, I just don't know where to look.
I've searched the entire drive for any .rlog files and I only see the one I created today in the .tqsl directory.

What file extension should I be searching for?

Thanks again,
