I noticed the site has been updated as far as the documentation for 2.3.1, 
however the latest version in the downloads section is 2.3.0, any other 
places where I can get 2.3.1

Cheers
  66070   Sat Nov 22 13:08:59 2008 Question Niall DooleyNiall_Dooley@inmarsat.comQuestionWindows2.7.5Several drop down menu's for a field

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to have several drop down menus associated with a particular field. My problem is as follows, currently I have a particular field where its value is a name of a person obtained from a list of names from a drop down menu. However, I would like to be able to select on certain occasions more than one name from this same drop down list of names. 

The field name in question is "Call-out" as in the name of a person called out. I guess I could add another field say "Call-out 2" and have a drop down menu of names for this new field too but I would like to avoid this if possible. So I would like possiby to have two (or more) drop down menus side by side for this Call-out field which would each populate this one field with the names selected (if any) from each drop down menu. This way if only an a selection is made from the first drop down menu then it should work as it does currently but if an entry was also selected from the second drop down menu then both names should populate the field when the log is complete.

I hope I have been clear in my question/request? Many thanks in advance for any help or suggestions received.

Can you email a thread of log entries. I think this would be a very useful function, which would enable the logger in effect to send an entire history of a particular issue to the interested parties.

 

 Well, kind of. If you notify yourself with elog entries, they are grouped in a thread in your email application. From there you can forward the thread to someone. Or you forward the link to one entry in the thread, and if the link is the opened, the interested parties see the whole link. Sending the whole thread inside elog is however not possible.

 Hi Stefan,

Your suggestion of emailing a link for a log entry with which any interested parties open the link are able to see the entire thread works. However, it does not display the additional text which may be added in the text box below the standard field entries. To view this additional text would require the email recipiant to log into the elog account. The only problem with this is the interested parties may not have the priviledges to log into the elog account. Thanks for your time.

Hi,

Is there a way perhaps of implementing an email recall feature into E-Log? In other words, to recall an email before the recipient (s) read the email originating from the e-log. Something perhaps along the lines of what exists in something like Outlook.

Thks in advance.

Regards,

Niall

 Wildcards are not implemented for that purpose. But a "Allow New = admin1, admin2" implicitly denies this command for all other users, I guess that's what you want. There is also the possibility to use "Guest Menu Commands" to allow everybody to read entries, but only logged in users to write and modify them.

 

I tried it in a global group configuration

[global monitoring]
Allow Edit = admin1, admin2
Allow New = admin1

But I as admin2 am still able to create new entries in the corresponding log books.

Is this configuration only for logbooks?

I needed the export feature and could not find documentation on it in the latest 
version. I finally read the code and added Find Menu Text = <filename>
where filename had the tags XML, CSV1, and CSV2
This always exports all records. Shouldn't it just export the records appearing in 
the window?
Also, there is a CSV Import menu item, why isn't there CSV Export? Or just Export 
with radio buttons controlling the format.
(BTW, the XML export is not valid. Internet Explorer complains about the first line)

Great Software. Love it. Keep up the good work!

Thanks much!! I can't believe I missed seeing those options. Works great. (There is a 
danger to having the source code. You tend to read it instead of looking at the way the 
program works )

BTW,
Is there any way to turn off the Text column at the right side of the list?
