Logs Options Tab

The log file shows information about time stamps printed. On the logging tab you can select to turn  the system logging on or off and which log file to write to when logging is enabled.

Once a log file is specified DocuClock will add data to the log file each time a time stamp is made. The log file will record the time the stamp was made, and include any message and log fields selected. Labels and blank fields are not printed in the log file.

To file /Off
Turns logging on/off - starts/stops writing to log file. Turning off logging does not remove any existing log file.
