Editing record properties
All Geo-log 4 records have common properties, such as Project, Site, Borehole, Client, Creation date, etc. These properties can be requested to be displayed inside a report header (Creating a report of drilling parameters). These properties are also used as search criteria (Filtering records).
These properties can be edited through various ways:
- the report header (with the restriction that only one record can be selected)
- the specific report of Menard Pressurmeter Test
- the specific report of Dynamic penetration test
- the generic properties form.
The latter is the most universal way to change a set of properties of a record selection.
