Right, guest access is not possible with a global password file. This comes from
the fact that people wish to protect their logbook selection page. What I can do
is add another flag "protect selection page = 0 | 1". If "0", the logbook
selection page can be seen without logging in. Is that what yo want?

Yes, that is what I want.

I have been importing data from a CSV file into elog which has worked.

However I'd like to import data from the CSV file, directly to the 'text' 
field, rather than just to one an attribute fields. Is it possible to do 
this?

Paul

Is there any way to configure elog so that attribute fields can be edited 
on more than line like the 'text' field? 

(This would be useful so that attributes could contain larger portions of 
text including line breaks)

thanks

Paul

Hello,

For some reason if I define a "login user" that is allowed the configure
option he is also allowed to change the configuration file. According to the
documentation it seems like this should NOT be the case. Any ideas as to
what the problem might be? 

Thanks in advance for any help/advice.

Hello,
Elogd crashing when "Resubmit as new entry" is executed.
Tried with demo config, same result, also tried with snapshot version.
After the first crash i restart elogd, then it crashes every time i enter 
the logbook containing the entry i tried to "Resubmit as new entry"
Anyone seen same behavior, on win2000 platform ?.

I have some problems of understanding how the "Format <attribute>" parameter
is working. It may be, that there was a similar question in the forum, but I
didn't find it. I'm sorry if I come back with an old question.

I would like to have 2two attributes in the same line. As ex. PersonName,
PersonCity.

If I understand the handbook correctly, it should be posslible with "Format
<attribute> = 1". However, I'm not able to use the "Format <attribute>"
correctly because I do not understand how to use it correctly in the cfg file.

Is there a possibilty of an example by Stafan or does anybody else already
use this feature successfuly and is able to post a example here?

Thank's a lot!

Hi,

Is it possible to restrict the display of logbook entries to the entries 
created by the currently logged-in user?

I'm thinking of using the ELOG system in a school laboratory environment: 
students must write entries in the logbook about their excersises, but I 
would like that students can not "see" what other students have written. To 
make it even more complicated, I would like that students can see their own 
entries and the teacher entries.....

Is something like this possible?

Thanks in advance
