Borehole Logs

To import version 2 borehole logs into a project select the Logs menu item from the Import Version 2 Data submenu. The Import Version 2 Log Files form will be displayed.

A single borehole log can be selected by clicking on it and pressing the Open button. A range of borehole logs can be selected by clicking on the beginning of the range and then holding down the Shift key while clicking on the end of the range. Multiple logs can be selected by holding down the CTRL key while clicking on the logs.

After the Open button has been pressed the Import Version 2 Logs form will be displayed. The purpose of this form is to get the unique Borehole Number, X-Coordinate, and Y-Coordinate of the imported logs so that they can be properly stored in the database. This information can be selected from the headers of the logs or be entered in the table for each log. The X and Y Coordinates are used primarily by other applications and may be left blank.

If the information is to be selected from the borehole logs as shown above, a Select button will appear below the data type. This button should be pressed to select which field in the borehole logs has the desired data (in this case the borehole number). A Borehole Data List form will be displayed listing the fields contained in the borehole logs. This field list is derived from the header and footer fields in the template of the first borehole log, and the headers and footers of the first borehole log. The desired field (Borehole Number in this case) should be selected and then the Select button pressed.

After the Ok button of the Import Version 2 Logs form has been pressed, the logs will be imported into the project. During the importation, the program will check to make sure that the Borehole Numbers specified are unique. If the Borehole Number is not unique, the form below will be displayed asking for a unique borehole number.
