Log Entry Specific Keywords

Definition

It is possible to assign keywords to individual log entries. To do so it is necessary to have
previously set up a keyword list. One or more keyword grids or dictionaries may have
been set up and named for use with the logsheet. Once set up, as many keyword grids or
dictionaries can be used with a log as required.

Assignment

The log entry specific keywords can be assigned to each individual log entry when it is
created or edited.

This can done in various ways:

You can start typing the keyword directly in the Keyword field of and select a keyword
proposed in the Autocomplete list.

You can select keywords in an open keyword grid.

Relevant keyword grids or dictionaries are usually best prepared in advance of the logging
session although they could be produced and/or modified at any time. As many keyword
grids or dictionaries as required can be used with a logsheet.

See

the General Functions user manual

for more details on the different procedures.

Standard keywords and participants keywords assigned to a log entry are displayed in the
Keywords and Participants columns of the Logs grid.
