Hi there,
I'd like to organize some notes at the end of the borehole logs.
Currently I write the notes in the "Notes" section of the Borehole Input Section but they do not format neatly with each note on a new line.
When I add some input information in the Remark Input tab, they do not show up on the template.
I think I first need to add the remarks to the template design. How do I do this?
Thanks so much
Ismena
Hi Ismena,
There are few different ways. Since this looks like information you are showing at the end of borehole you could add it to the boundary text expression. To modify it ..open report design . open the material description column . goto boundary text and modify the text below last line expression. Either add your own table and field or modify the User system data expression in Data Design ..User system data.
The Notes field in the standard dataset is just a text field for a short note. It is usually referenced in the header of the report. The remarks table is a depth table where you are recording downhole remarks at depth.
If you created a new memo field in the point table you could do that also (this allows carriage returns) . And then reference that in your boundary text expression.
Here are some links to other users who have done other things for end of hole notes
Also see report design tutorial.
If any of these don't look like a good fit, there are other ways. Just file a quick service request and we can call you back and walk you through a variety of options.
Hi Kirk .
I finally got around to trying your solution. I like the idea of editing the report template, but the values change for each well and I could not figure out how to call certain values from elsewhere in the database. I think I will resolve by adding a false lithology entry after the well depth.
