This function allows you to edit data from multiple drillholes in a spreadsheet environment. The editor consists of three inter-linked spreadsheets: drillhole data, strata data and attribute data. The strata information corresponds to the currently selected drillhole in drillhole spreadsheet and in-turn the attribute spreadsheet shows data for the highlighted strata. The information changed in the editor will be saved into drawing or the external database on the exit. There is a prompt to save holes or not.
In any of the spreadsheets, additional entries may be created by
moving down from the lowest
line of the spreadsheet. The newly created entry needs to be filled in
before another one may be
created or before saving the spreadsheet. The Del
key removes the highlighted line from
spreadsheet. Drillholes deleted from spreadsheet do not get deleted
from the drawing, but all changes made
to the deleted drillhole are lost. The Ins key inserts an entry
above the highlighted one, which
is especially handy when you need to insert strata. The
Tab key switches between spreadsheets. If an entry is invalid or
a compulsory field has not been defined the cursor will stay in that
field
and a message will display in the bottom line of the editor. The
incomplete entry should be finished
or deleted before proceeding. Changes between Key and Non-key type of
strata may change the
set of strata attributes. Therefore the values of some attributes will
be lost in the transition.
The appearance of the editor may be modified by hiding unwanted columns using Display pulldown and rows may be hidden by selecting unwanted rows and selecting Edit-Hide. To show rows again select rows above and below and pick Edit-Show. The Options pulldown contains options for units selection and the method of elevation adjustment. These options are saved on the exit, so that next time the editor resets to these defaults.
Select Drillhole Configuration File (this prompt appears
once. Use Set Drillhole Definition
to change current Drillhole Definition)
