My FSX logbook just quit registering flights. I down loaded some missions that had rewards from this sight and I wonder if that is the problem...anybody got and suggestions?

my logbook stopped too at 566 landings, it took me about 15 landings to even notice, so i thought maybe there was a limit, so i deleted a few previous ones, and it still stuck at 560. so i moved the logbook to another location, and started a new one. i have not tried moving the log book back but all my rewards are still there so i dont care

the default logbooks are known to have glitches and give problems such as this

download this and run it to see if it works

I stopped using the FS logbook well over a decade ago, simple because it was full of glitches, and was completely worthless then... ;D

Use a spreadsheet instead to create your own logbook. It's more editable, and more flexible to do with it what you want.

I totally agree. Ive been recording my flights in a small and big notebook since the first day I flew my flights.
I had this same problem but dint bother to fix it because I thought it would just not work again.

and its always fun to grade my landings so I can go back and see how bad some of mine were and when my best ones were.  ;D

Over at Avsim in the FSx Utilities section there is also Log Book Editor v0.2 by Lamont Clark.  It works great!
