Is there a way to merge existing entries from several logbooks into a single logbook? 

 Got it! Thanks...

Is there a way to require a certain attribute on reply, but not on an original entry?  In some cases info. for these fields only exists on reply.

How I can dynamically create a link when a new submission is entered that 
will have a value of <ELOG_URL$message id?=Edit>
I want the users to be able to go straight from the main page to an edit 
page. This would skip 1 step to get to the edit page.
Is this possible. 
If that link could use one of the icons for the src image that would be 
great. 
Thanks.

For our application we have a lot of very common events we would like to log.  It would be preferable that for certain events/entries we could setup a single button / quick entry method.  Is there away to accomplish this?

I was wondering if anyone out there has had any success with importing XML data into ELOG. Using the XML schema which I derive from the EXPORT data from ELOG into XML format or creating the file from scratch, I either blowup the system and have to restart elogd or it doesn't work and says, XML file doesn't contain ELOG_LIST element (which I create and it still doesn't work).

Basically, I am trying to take spreadsheet data, convert it into XML and upload it as a logbook so I don't have to perform lots of data entry. I also tried .CSV but have had no luck. 

Any thoughts or ideas? 

Hi,

I've just upgraded from 2.6.2 to 2.7.3.

In my config file, I have

Quick filter: Date, ID.

When starting 2.7.3, across the top I now get 

"Error: Attribute "ID" for quick filter not found"
followed by an entry box.

If an ID is typed into that box, it sort of finds the right entry (+/- a few on occasion).

I cannot see any documented change that would affect how the Quick filter works.  Any clues?  Thanks.

Thanks Stefan!
