NTRODUCTION
The logs section of the Database Explorer allows the user to browse for a log of
any event for which a log has been created and then to use the free text search
engine or Keyword Grids to filter the data to provide required results.
Folders can be created in the Logs area of the explorer tree to enhance the
database structure and make the collation and search of data easier.

TRUCTURE
The logs tree structure is created by making new directories to store logs in. The
logs tree is customised by the user, by adding directories relevant to the
Production.
Right-clicking the heading of the bin tree opens a contextual menu that gives the
choice of creating a new directory, deleting the selected directory, publishing a
directory or viewing its properties
Right-clicking a log icon in the log tree opens a contextual menu that gives access
to the choices displayed in the screenshot below:
The user can take advantage of the log directories by searching all log sheets
contained inside the directory. This allows for a search across a range of log
sheets instead of all sheets in the system.
Note
If the user has selected a directory in the logs tree structure, the
system will disable the Automatic Refresh option for that time being.
This is to minimize wasteful database query updates on the browser
window.
