when I want to add logs to numerous activities there is an easier way in which to do this in Lotus1-2-3. however my problem is that I can import the activities into Lotus 1-2-3 but once I have added all my log info I cant seem to export it back into P3? What am I doing wrong?? I have tried numerous ways.

    The method which works fine for me is to EXPORT the P3 data to a *.wk1 file, specifying the range of log records to be exported.

    Make the changes in the wk1 file and in P3 use this file to IMPORT the revised data.

    As I said seems to work fine for me

    Possible problems:

    1. You tried to write the file yourself. Soln - export a file, fill it out and then import back. I recommend using the dbase format. You can use MS Excel to open this format.

    2. You may have exceeded the log width. Up to 48 chars only.
    3. You may have exceeded the number of logs. Up to 99 lines only, please.

    Alternatively, you can just attach files to activities using logs. Use this format if you want to do this:

    "file://pathlongfilename.extension"

    Good luck!

    Mr. Jorge!
    Many thanks to you for File Linking operation. I needed it to attach method statements for certain critical activities.

    Hi Neeraj!

    My pleasure. Anyway, the script was wrong. It should have been:

    "file://drive:pathlongfilename.extension"

    Sorry for the inaccuracy. I hope this helps.

    regards,
