the document covers. Nevertheless, even without data, the Depth range option in
the New document dialog box allows to set the range of a visible depth interval. If
the Borehole Document has already been created and you want to change the visible
depth range, click the Depth range option from the View menu or simply press
CTRL + R.
The next step would be to populate each log of the document with data. This can be
done interactively using the data edition methods explained for each log in
“Appendix A” or in “1.5 Working with Logs”.
If data is imported from files you should use the File > Import Into Current
Document otherwise a new borehole document will be created. The automated
merging of data columns only works if log types and log title of existing and
incoming logs are the same. If you have to copy logs between documents and merge
logs you can do the following:
� Select the log(s) you want to copy.
� Click the Copy option from the Edit menu ( , CTRL+C).
� Activate the document containing the chart framework and click Paste
option from the Edit menu ( ,, CTRL+V).
You could also “Cut’n Paste” or “Drag’n Drop” the logs (see 1.3.2.10 Cut, Copy
and Paste Logs).
To transfer the data from the copied logs into the corresponding log columns
derived from the template:
� Select the target log (that is the log within the chart framework).
� Press the CTRL key and select the source log (that is the one containing
the data) next.
� Right click on one of the selected log handles.
� From the Flying Menu select the Merge option. The Merge Logs dialog
pops up. (If this option is not available ensure the two selected logs are of
the same type.)
� Do not check the Output as a new log option and click OK. All data will
be transferred into the target log and the source log will be removed from
the document.
