Header and footer data is displayed at the top and bottom of the log. The data being displayed will depend on the template. This data can include information such as project name, location, client, date, drill method, etc.

 

The header and footer data can be represented either as text or memo data. The difference between text data and memo data is that there is no limit to the length of memo data and memo data can contain rich text. The method used to represent the data is set in the template.

 

There are several ways to edit the header and footer data, either:

 

•click on the header or footer on the log

•double click on the Header/Footer Data object on the sidebar

•select Edit > Header/Footer Data

•or select Popup > Header/Footer Data

 

After this the Header/Footer Data form below will be displayed.

 

(The appearance of the form will differ slightly depending on if it is WinLoG or WinLoG RT)

 

On this form a list of the header and footer data is displayed, with the type of data on the left and the data on the right.  If the data type is filled out automatically (eg. borehole/well name, project name)  then it can not be edited on this form.

 

If the data is represented by a memo, the rich text toolbar at the top will be activated. The buttons of the toolbar perform the following functions:

 

•The Font Typeface box is used to select the name of the font to use for the selected text.
