Simple Beginner Questions

1) When I click on a previous entry from the Log, its details are loaded into the field editor on the left. There is no way (ESC key etc) to get out of editing the current contact and start a new contact, So I end up quitting the program every time. There has to be a better way
2) I imported hundreds of contacts from N1MM and they are all there in my log. When I right click on 'Look up for DXCC', every single one says "Country NOT WORKED". So I if make a new contact for a country obviously already worked, I get no notification "already worked" or "not worked, this is a new one you need' I kinda need a logging program to do this without reading 1000 help pages to figure out how to turn that feature on. It should be automatic
3) Not all contacts have the details filled in, location etc. Is this an automatic QRZ lookup in the background that failed?
The club call RT7D is an an example. No details. Do I have to right-click on hundreds of contacts and do lookups on them all?
4) All my American Contacts have Continent:NA, STATUS: DXCC, ITU ZONE:WASHINGTON, QRB Km:177, QRB Miles:110
All 300 of them....im NOT typing anything else into this app until it does the heavy lifting of doing lookups and filling in the blanks for me
Sorry for complaining, unless im missing something.....the feature set looks nice, Rig Control, Clusters, Spotting to Cluster, BandMap, LOTW, etc
Thanks
