Has anyone developed a report tool for elog?  I would like to be able to sort certain items and send them to either a printer, or an email (external to my own use).

If not, any ideas on an easy means of doing this?  I write a lot of Perl, so that would be an option for me if the text is easily obtained.

Thanks

Switch to the "summary" display (try it with this forum). You get headers (like "category"). Clicking on it sorts by that attribute. Then display "all" entries, or use the "find" option to search in certain time periods, then just print the web page.

Alternatively, expeort logbook entries as CSV files, load them into a spreadsheet program, and do the sorting and printing there.

I don't see an "export" option in the documentation, only "import."  Printing the web page is probably not what I want.

After I moved an item from one logbook to another one I cannot reply on this item anymore.

When the submit button is clicked it returns: Submit not allowed

This eLog server running Linux is sync'd with an server running Windows XP.

On the windows server the funcionality is working perfect(so no Submit is not allowed on a reply)

Hi,

I love this software. I am not a programmer but have learned alot about the program.

I have 2 questions.   #### This is my modification ####

1. when i do a reply it will bring the original qutes with it but i have the option to change what had been entered. once i do the reply and reply to the reply i can not change the first reply but can change the second reply. This just started last week and i am not sure what has changed. i even uninstalled and reinstalled. If I try to just the HTML i tcomes up with code? If I do elcode seems to do ok just not able to stop the editing of the the last reply. Plain seems to do the same as ELcode.

2. I have also had trouble with E-Log not starting on my XP machines. Any ideas?

Thanks for sharing such a powerful program it is sweet.

Sorry but I don't get your point. See I modified your original entry above. Now I will submit this entry, and do another reply. **** And I can modify this ****

Any reason why when I click "Reply" to a previous submission that the body is full of HTML code?

See below:

Here is my logbook config:

[Logbook]
Theme = default
Comment = Maintenance Logbook
Attributes = Author, Type, Category, Subject, Shift
Options Type = Repair, Routine, Preventative, Other
Options Category = Emergency, General, Change-Over, Other
Options Shift = 1, 2, 3
Extendable Options = Category
Required Attributes = Author, Type
Page Title = Maint Log - $subject
Reverse sort = 1
Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name
Locked Attributes = Author
Quick filter = Date, Type, Category
