I am setting this up as instrument log in a multi-hospital system, where there will be multiple instruments, in multiple departments, at multiple facilities.

I am using the "Top Group" function to keep the books separate so operators from one instrument/department/facility don't contaminate another instrument/department/facility's logbook.

What I am wondering is there someway to set it up so that a system wide manager could post a message to 5 individual logbooks for 5 identical instruments at 5 different locations all at once (one ELOG server)?

I hope this made sense.  Thank you for your help.

I am tring to sort  the attribute, subject, but it sorts with Z on top and A on the bottom. Is there anyway to reverse sort?

 Sorry, to bother you. Solved my own problem   " Reverse sort = 0"

What I would like to do is:

If attribute "A" and attribute  "B" - send email to person #1

If attribute "A" and attribute  "C" - send email to person #2

(I apologize if this in the documentation. I have looked at the "Email" section and have either missed it or don't understand it. Thank you for the help)

Your suggestion worked GREAT (like always)

I copied the following line from the ELOG documentation file to my config file (with the appropriate changes to the attribute and value fields) and nothing happens. Am I missing something?

Style importance severe = background-color:red

Thanks for all your help.

I really appreciate your help and I hope that my questions warrant your time.

What I am trying to accomplish is two totally separate groups of logbooks that share a common logbook.

Three logbooks

Logbook A

Logbook B

Logbook C (just informational, write protected)

Two Groups

Top Group 1 = Logbook A, Logbook C

Top Group 2 = Logbook B, Logbook C

What is happening is everything looks good until you try to enter Logbook C from Group 1. You end up in Logbook C (the right logbook) but you are now in Group 2.

Actual Code:

;Groupings
Top Group Central = Centaur, On-LineHelps
Top Group Good Sam = GSH, On-LineHelps

 Sorry, it took me so long to respond. I didn't notice your request.

Attributes = Instrument, Notify Lead Tech

Options Instrument = Olympus, Beckman

Options Notify Lead Tech = Yes{a}, No {b}

{a}Email Instrument Olympus = John@lab.net         (i.e. if it is "Yes" and  "Olympus" - John gets an email)

{a}Email Instrument Beckman = Mary@lab.net         (i.e. if it is "Yes" and  "Beckman" - Mary gets an email)
