Handy tip for "Advanced" users - Reordering records within a date   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #32 of 277 |
Okay, here's something you may need at some point. If you forget to
put in a game, and then want to get it in later, you will notice that
if you put in the date, it will sort within other records for that
date, but it will be at the end of the previously entered game entries
for that date. So if you are the anal-retentive / obsessive-compulsive
type, like me, you want to get it in its correct position. Currently
there is only one way to do this.

It requires that you run the GameLogger from a shortcut. Select the
shortcut, and right-click to bring up the properties window. In the
dialog box where it shows the Target, add the word debug to the entry.
Example: L:\Projects\Glog\Glog6\GameLogger.exe debug

Now when you run the program from this shortcut, you will see an
additional field next to the date field. This field contains an
integer value which serves as an ID number, and orders the records
within a given date.

Now this "feature" was never really intended for general use, and so
you could mess up your data a bit if you don't take care entering
these numbers. Also, I never took the proper precautions to make the
ID routine all that solid, so if you manually enter numbers, the
program won't know about them, and so a subsequent insert will reuse
an existing number. So if you do edit records using these numbers,
it's best to exit the program after doing so, so that subsequent
inserts will get the proper number, (the program only checks for what
number to start using when it starts up).

I will have some other more transparent method of dealing with this in
a subsequent release, but that won't be for a while, so this should
get you through until then.
