Project categories can be used to group similar projects together. They can be organized by office, client, year, etc. If the option to Use Project Storage is checked in Preferences the project databases will be stored in the folders specified for the project category. This can be used to store groups of projects in different folders, drives, computers, or networks.
The project categories and subcategories on the project tree on the sidebar can be edited by selecting Tools > Projects > Edit Project Tree. The Edit Project Tree Categories form will be displayed. This form displays the project categories and subcategories in tree consisting of nodes and sub-nodes.
There is a category called Data Specific that is used to store projects relating to specific type of data; such as, MEWS (Ontario Ministry of Environment Wastewater System). This category should not be edited.
(The appearance of the form will differ slightly depending on if it is WinLoG or WinLoG RT)
The buttons at the top of the form can be used for the following:
Add: To add a project category, highlight the Projects node and click on the Add button then enter the name below. To add a project subcategory, highlight the category and click on the Add button then enter the name below.
Edit: To edit a project category or subcategory, highlight it and click on the Edit button.
Remove: To remove a project category or subcategory, highlight it and click on the Remove button.
Adding and Editing a Project Category
When adding or editing a project category the name can be specified and if Use Project Storage is specified in Preferences the folder can be specified by clicking on the button on the the right of the folder name. If the folder for the project category is changed you will have the option to move all of the projects in the project category to the new project folder.
