Data Logging (Making new varaiables in logging......)

[Schwede]

Hello,

I want to log new variables to my database (for example StationGlobals.TS.CurrentUser.FullName or StationGlobals.ProductionNumber). But it doesn´t work. I can only choose in the expression field in database options the logging.(for example UUTResult.Status) path. How can I add new variables to choose them for logging??

thankyou

What version are you using? If you look at the Expression Browser dialog box for an expression in the Database Options dialog box, you should see a context that should include both "Logging" and "StationGlobals". If you are not showing hidden properties, the "StationGlobals.TS" property will not be visible, but your other one should be visible. Why do you say that it does not work?

Hello,

Iàm using TS 3.0. I have tried again to change the expression field, but if I choose an expression (logging, stationglobals....) and confirm it with the "OK" button. The old expression appear in the expression field when I started the database options again. It seems that it is locked.
Is it a canfiguration problem??

There was a bug in a utility module that the Database Options dialog box uses to display the expression edit control and the f(x) button combination. This has been fixed in 3.1. The problem is that if you specify an expression using the f(x) button, the expression does not get committed propertly in the text control next to the f(x) button. If you instead type the expression in the text box, or use the f(x) and then edit the text in the text box, the problem does not occur. This occurs with the VB dialog boxes only, database options and the IVI step types. Sorry for the inconvenience.
