The first option,
, allows printing selected records, with
an option of deleting those records from the database after these
records were printed.
•
The second option,
Archive
, allows you to archive the
selected records to a diskette, with an option of deleting those
records after archiving is complete.
•
The third option,
Delete
, allows you to delete the selected
records without archiving.
The data log records are archived in a format that is compatible with
Lotus 1-2-3 (or similar spreadsheet file formats) and dBase III plus (or
similar database file formats).
The maximum file size is 65 kilobytes.
The format uses a comma-delimited, ASCII record format. Three
different file formats are used:
■
PDyymmdd.XXX
(USER data)
■
NDyymmdd.XXX
(Additional data)
■
DDyymmdd.XXX
(EQPT data)
Where:
•
yy
= year of archive
•
mm
= month of archive
•
dd
= day of archive
•
XXX
= filename extension, numbered sequentially from 001 to
999
The month, date, and year (yymmdd) used in the archive file name are
those that you specify in the Archive Cutoff Date screen. The current date
(or system date) is not automatically used.
The archive process always creates records starting with extension 001. If
previous data log archives have been performed with the same cut-off
date on the same disk drive, and in the same directory, then existing
archive file(s) are overwritten.
