Since both my machine and the Elog server PC are inside my company's "security zone", I am not running a firewall on my machine.

 

For what it's worth:  in trying to research the "No error" message, I did come across this information on MS's website; that is, their statement is:

The gethostbyname function retrieves host information corresponding to a host name from a host database.

 

Note  The gethostbyname function has been deprecated by the introduction of the getaddrinfo function. Developers creating Windows Sockets 2 applications are urged to use the getaddrinfo function instead of gethostbyname.

icon3.gif   Duplicate entry suggestion, posted by Dennis Seitz on Tue Apr 1 02:04:35 2008 

 We have configured several logbooks to allow users to duplicate an entry in another logbook, which is very useful for entries which apply to more than one category.

However, once the entry is duplicated, subsequent revisions to the original entry are not copied to the duplicate entries.

I can see where implementing that would add a lot of code to ELOG.  Rather than do that, would it be possible to add a configuration option to duplicate only the attributes, and place a link to the original entry in the body of the duplicated entry instead of the full text?

Thanks,

Dennis

I don't know if you are aware, but you can put links to other entries manually into the text. Just enter them in the form elog:65799. You can click on that link which takes you the entry you reference. Unfortunately there is at the moment no automatic way to generate this back link automatically.

Thanks, I was not aware of that - usually I have copied and pasted the entire path from my browser.

In any case, can you consider my request for possible future implementation? I think it's a useful function. For now, it's really no big deal to simply copy the url before selecting the Copy To: menu and then replacing the body text with the copied link. But I think it would be more useful to make this happen automatically, so I don't have to ask users to comply voluntarily.

Thank you.

 

icon3.gif   attachment indicator in summary view, posted by Dennis Seitz on Tue Apr 1 21:24:17 2008 

 It would be nice to have the option of including an attachment indicator column in summary view to show if an entry has any attachments.

Thanks.
