AALog v.3 Help
- Filtering contacts

To set up filter options press F9 in the main window.

  • New option - add a new filter option
  • Delete option - delete a selected filter option from the list 
  • Clear options - clear the filter settings  
  • Save filter - save these seetings to use them again 
  • Load filter - load a saved filter 
  • Apply settings - apply this filter in the Main window for the active log
  • Query - display the filtered contacts from the current log in a separate window.

Several conditions in the filter are logically summed. According to the filter settings on this screenshot AALog will display the contacts with the Canadian station and on 20 meters band only.

To apply filter in the main window set  'Enable filtering' check mark and click 'Apply settings'.

To set up a filter you need:
Press F9, mark 'Enable filtering', click New option, [customize filter settings, press Add to filter], close New filter option window, click Apply settings to start filtering. Actions in brackets are executed as many times as many parts of the filter must be combined into one filter.

For string (text) values wildcards '*' and '?' can be applied. The asterisk represents any number of characters, question mark replaces only one character in this position.

Condition list according to the type of value:
List of values From the list - values included in the list
Out of the list - values NOT included in the list
String values Equal - string is equal to
Not equal - string is NOT equal to
Start with - string starts with that
Contain string - string contains this substring
Numeric and Date/Time values Equal
Not equal
Great than
Great or Equal
Less than
Less or Equal

Hint: to enable/disable filter in the Main window use Ctrl+F9.

Hint: from the values specified in the list (when creating a filter) you can at once make a group or several groups of records by pressing Shift (for groups) and Ctrl (for multiple groups).
