I'm (mis)using elog as a database. I like the fact that I can have presets for fields, but I also like the fact 
that I can make a duplicate of an entry. Now when I make a duplicate, all the fields get overwritten with the 
preset-value. Is there a way to get the preset-values only on entering a NEW reord and NOT on a duplicate ?

I could take away the presets, most of them are "***" (literally) to be able to search for entries that do not 
have a value, but I don't know how to search for empty fields.


PS: They wanted to do a CMDB in BMC-Magic (really expensive $$$-ware), but after about 1 afternoon (and about 6 
prototypes) they went with elog since it was fast, cheap and already implemented (and filled with 200 entries 
through a script using some old CSV list we had lying around) :-) 

 

I have several date-fields defined in my logboek. But when I click the icon and select another month the pop-up 
window get's filled  with the contants of the logboek instead of the date-selection.

Date format = %Y%m%d

[quote="Angus Au"]I came across problem in compiling elog 2.6.1 on solaris platform.

Is there any fix ? I can compile elog 2.6.0 successfully on solaris.[/quote]

There is a fix, we have 2.6.1 running on Solaris.

A colleague of me installed it and did mention something about having to go through the source and adapting the 
makefile. I didn't hear him speak of missing libraries though, I will ask him next week.

Ups, that problem must have been there for quite some time now. I fixed it in the current SVN version.
