The Award Progress panel on the DXCC tab provides a scrollable table with a row for each DXCC entity and a column for each award category: Entity (Mixed), Phone, CW, RTTY, and the bands from 160m to 2m. The code in each table cell contains a code that indicates your award progress for its DXCC entity and award category:

The Award Progress Filter panel lets you home in on specific DXCC entities. If you click this pane's All button, it displays a row for each of the 401 all-time DXCC entities. If you're not interested in now-deleted DXCC entities, uncheck the Include deleted DXCC entities box, and the table will be filtered to show only rows for each of the 339 current DXCC entities. If you wish to see only entities you haven't yet worked, then leave the Unworked box checked, and uncheck the Worked, Requested, Confirmed, and Verified boxes. Set the Band selector to 80M, and you'll see only rows for DXCC entities that you haven't worked on 80m. At any time, you can click the All button to restore the table to showing rows for all 401 all-time DXCC entities.
If you click on a row in the Award Progress table, the Progress Details table at the bottom of the tab will show your band-mode progress with the DXCC entity associated with that row.
The Award Progress panel is live: double-clicking a cell will filter the Log Page Display to show all QSOs with the row's DXCC entity and the column's band or mode.
