Program settings

Softdrill NL   

 

Global settings for the WellRep program may be changed through the [Utility] - [Settings...] option in the main menu of the main form.

 

General

Colors

These colors will be used to highlight the active well in the well selection grid on the main form and to print headers on reports.

 

Print to PDF settings

Sets the default folder location for PDF output.  When previewing a report, the report may be printed or exported in PDF format.

For each report type there is a default name ('Daily Report.pdf' for a Daily Report).  If the checkbox is checked, the current date (not the report date) is automatically added to the default file name.  An example with the current settings is shown below the checkbox.

 

Backup settings

Sets the default folder to store database backups. Backup warning after and Force backup after define the number of days since the last backup at when the user will be warned or forced to make a backup when closing the program.  To prevent the program from warning or forcing the user, set either of these values to 0.

 

Hours tracking on daily report

On the daily report form, hours for specific tool classes are calculated for the BHA's in use for that day.  These hours are also printed on the Daily Report. In this section the Tool Classes to be tracked (default: Bit, Motor and RSS) may be adjusted.

Tool classes may be selected as required.  However, it should be taken into account that the calculation of tool hours (including previous BHA runs) is complex.  As such, selecting many tool classes can slow down calculation and/or printing of daily reports considerably, especially on slower computers.
