After the template has been selected in the step above, the Borehole Data form below will be displayed. The first thing that must be entered is the Borehole Number. The Borehole Number is used to store the borehole data and must be unique for each borehole in a project. The X-Coordinate, Y-Coordinate, and Well Symbol are used primarily by other programs and the defaults can be used for this tutorial.
Enter “101” for the Borehole Number and then click on the Data tab at the top of the form. The Data tab displayed below is used to enter most of the general borehole data that will appear in the header and footer of the borehole log. In addition, memo data can be entered using the Memo tab. The default types of general borehole data that can be entered are set by the template. Additional data types can be entered as well using the Add button at the bottom of this tab.
For this tutorial enter the following information and then press the Ok button.
Borehole Number:101 (This number can be the same as entered on the previous tab or a different number can be used for display purposes only).
