Hi Forum team,

I have a large schedule with considerable log record details for each activity. I would like to remove all of the text for every activity’s log record. Manually deleting each line item in the log record would take forever!

Does anybody know a way of quickly removing these log record details. I could not find Log Record listed in the global change function.

Appreciate the help.
Paul

    You can try through export/import tools. You can first export to a dbf file your logs, then open in excel and emptying them and finally import again. The result will be no log at your schedule.

    Thank you, Paco

    Alternatively, a colleague just advised me that after exporting to a dbf file - insert a new column called Delete - then populate with the letter L - finally, import the data.

    Much appreciated.

    create a new project BLNK (blank).
    then u should find a file BLNKLOG.p3

    if ur project that u wnat to remover the relationship is ABCD, you can delete (or rename just to be safe) ABCDLOG.p3
    Copy BLNKLOG.p3 as the new ABCDLOG.p3

    That should work...
    It worked for me when i remove all resources using same method for ????RES.p3

    Open the folder where you saved the file. Look for a file that ends with "LOG" (i.e if your file name is "SMKD" the file will be "SMKDLOG"). Delete this file and reopen your project.

    The log records will no longer be present. You may decide to add additional log or simply close your project. A new "LOG" file will be created automatically in the folder where the previous "LOG" file was located.

    If it does not works, please let me know.
