Thanks for your prompt help.
It looks good for text but I still have problem with "select" function (even in English).

If I use "select" menu :
- When multiple values are selected it indicates "only user - keep original values - can edit" (freshly created).




- When a single value is selected, it indicates "only user XXX can edit" where XXX is my truncated name (the first 4 letters).



After editing in with admin account the author is now my truncated name :



If I want to edit a single entry (without select menu) it works perfectly.

Thanks.
 

Thanks !

Sometime I need to edit multiple values to add a new choice.
By exemple, if I add a new column "status" (open, closed...) , it's mandatory to use select menu to add the new value to existent entries.

With a lot of lines it's not possible to edit one by one.

I want to implement the following feature in my logbook:
selecting an Option related to a specific Attribute produces a filter on the Options related to the other Attributes.

-----
Example:
I have the following configuration:
" Attributes = Project, Category
Options Project = Agenda, Software
Options Category = General, Data, Result, Meeting, Status, TODO, DONE,
Reminder, Result, Other
...
Quick filter = Project, Category "

I want that: if on the Quick filter I select "Project = Agenda", then the entry "Category" displays only the Options "Meeting, Status, TODO, DONE, Reminder, Other"; if on the Quick filter I select "Project = Software", then the entry "Category" displays only the Options "General, Data, Result, Other".
See the attached JPGs (they are edited printscreens from my logbook).

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you in advance!

Attributes = Project, Category
Options Project = Agenda{1}, Software{2}
{1}Options Category = Meeting, Status, TODO, DONE, Reminder, Other
{2}Options Category = General, Data, Result, Other
Quick Filter = Project, Category 

Thanks a lot for the prompt answer!

Hi Stefan,

I recently installed the latest Elog 2.7.8 revision 2277 after running Elog 2.7.7 revision 2246 for several months without any problems. However once I submit an entry by using the Reply command Elog crashes and Windows XP reports an error message screen. This also stops the elogd service.

I have pinpointed it down to the command "subst on reply Subject = $Subject" by removing my whole configuration file and just added the line "subst on reply Subject = $Subject" to your demo configuration file.

Elog seems to also stops the elogd service with any "subst on reply" command.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you,

Regards

Hi Stefan,

I have noticed a problem when closing multiple log entries i.e entries which have more than 10 threads. I use Select -> Click the box that appears next to the thread I wish to close -> Edit.

As soon as I click on Edit the elogd service crashes and Windows displays an error message window. The only work around has been opening up all the threads and individually changing the "Status" to Closed. 

Forgive me if this issue has been raised before but I have looked throughout the Forum and could not see anyone experiencing the same problem.

Thanks

Cliff

i have been using elogbook V2.7.6 on my XP machine for a number of years. I ahve recently upgraded to windows 8 and the reply function on my entries has changed. I can now see the previous entrys in HTML format rather than the reply box which used to appear and also my ability to upload attachments and paste working linls is removed. Do i need to upgrade to the latest version and do i ned to back up my previous entries and how do i do this?

Thank you

I may have missed it when reading the logs, if so, sorry about that, but I would like to know if there is a way to set a field, let us call it "process run"  Ok let me give you some details on this.

a process run may have several "work orders" or sets of parts/items in it, so it will have several separate entries in the log  such as:

date##, run123, part 1, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part2, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part3, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part4, quantity, comment

I thought perhaps to have them use the reply function to add the other 3 items of the same run, and that would work if I could find a way to set 'process run' to auto increment, say perhaps, when the next 'New' entry was entered.  Is there something in place that can already do this?  If this is possible, I thought I would see if I can change the button for 'New' to something like 'New Run' and reply to 'Add Workorder' or something along that line so there is no confusion when entering the data.

Any suggestions you might provide are greatfully accepted.
