HELP: Fossils Data Entry Panel

NOTE: The best way to enter the individual tracks is to enter your description of the bed in the Remarks / Notes / Comments Data Entry Dialog and build a list of bed descriptions and then select the "Compute other data entry data types from Remarks" button.

This will allow the program to automatically use the geological description lookup xml files to parse your text into the rock image tracks. This basically saves time and effort, instead of entering each track separately.

The web page Parsing Rock Image Tracks from Remarks Text for Fossil Plot Track will explain the basic logic for parsing the Remarks Text for general fossils.

The Fossil Data Entry Dialog allows the user to change the general Fossils in the Fossil Plot Track.

NOTE: When saving your profile data to the LAS 3.0 File. If you modify any bed fossil data in the fossil data entry list, then you must select "No" when the "Save Raw Data Only" Query Window is displayed, otherwise you will lose your changes.

The user can enter the Fossils of a specific bed and select from the List of Fossil Symbols.

Select a button from the following list to view Help pages.
		Fossils Data Entry Dialog - Add Record
		Fossils Data Entry Dialog - Modify Record
		Fossils Data Entry Dialog - Remove Record
