For MOptions, you have to append an "_n" to each attribute to distinguish
different options for the same attribute, like

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Lab -a "Site_0=Home" -a "Site_1=Work" ...

Even if you only use one attribute, the trailing "..._0" is necessary. I will
add a note to the documentation.

I recompiled the executables according to

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj851139.aspx

and replaces the elog311-1.exe distribution. Can you try if it works? Unfortunately I don't have a XP machine here.

Thank you for recompiling ELOG.  Unfortunately, there is no change in all the test machines
I ran the newly compiled ELOG 3.1.1-1 on.  I will use the 2.x version until our systems move
to a new operating system or I can find someone in my IT department who knows how to compile programs
from the source code. 

If anyone else has suggestions or could compile the source for us to try, please speak up.  There are
many installations of obsolete operating systems in production :
 

Unfortunately not. What I would do is to define a quick filter, so with one click all 'open' entries are shown. Then you can look at the date column and see how long they have been open (actually when they have been submitted, so the difference you must calculate in your head!).

I added a new flag

Show top groups = 1

which shows the list of to groups. Hope this is what you want. The new version
is available from CVS (see download page).

Great! That takes care of the problem for sure.

Cheers once again for such a quick response.

GL.


//we use ELog very extensively internally, it's great, especially now with
replication//

You can use the 

elog:<logbook name> 

redirection. So for this logbook, so see all entries with Category=Info using following link

elog:Forum/?Category=Info

This should work from everywhere.
