Is there a way to open a form or table when clicking on New rather than going to a text field? Thanks, TS! 

Hi Terry,
it is not exactly clear to me what you want.
You can define many different types of attributes to an entry.
Like this logbook has "Icon", "Author", "Author Email", "Category", ...
That automatically creates a form for the input.
Or you can have some pre-filled text in the text area, like a pre-defined table.
E.g. with the following line:
Preset Text = input-form.html
Every new entry will now contain the content of the file input-form.html
which could be some table or list, ...

 Thank you very much for your replies Stefan and Andreas!

I've played with the Preset Text = input-form.html however when I open a new form it just has text in there stating "input-form.html. I feel like I'm missing a way for the Configuration to find my html file.

I feel like I am close but I'm missing one piece of data. Here is what I'd like to have, when I click "New" I'd like this table to be automatically inserted in the body.

Thanks again, Terry

 

If you see only the file name it means that elogd cannot find the file, it's probably in the wrong directory. Have you put it into the "logbooks" directory? Like c:\Program Files\ELOG\logbooks\
