Reset Log File

Reset the Log File for the Current Section

The Reset Log File option to remove all the operations that have been previously logged to the current section log file. A log file for each section, is created automatically by the software, and is written to every time an operation is carried out on that section. The log files are used by the Operation Reports option (under the File submenu) to create operation reports on each section. The reason for resetting a log file is to ensure that the operations you may no longer be interested in, do not get reported. The format of the log file name is:

<proj><spec_file_id>_<section_number>.rdlog

Make sure that the section for which you want to reset the log file, is set to current (refer to the Sections > Set Current option).
