Hi Jerry,
I have always submitted my logs in a spreadsheet format. That makes it easier to sort and edit as needed.
This is how to do it.
1. Under Tools, select Browse Logs to open the Log Browser dialog box.
2. In the lower right section of this box there are several buttons. Select Export to open the Export Obsering Logs dialog box.
3. In this box you can select the delimiter. I usually accept the "commas" default. In the middle section I click on the radio button for "All objects in this observing list" and select the observing list from which I want to export my logs. In the lower section, you can select wnat you want to include.
4. At the bottom, click on Export, enter a name for your file and where you want it to go. This creates a *.txt file.
5. Open your spreadsheet of choice and open or import this text file. I usually use LibreOffice Calc. It has a very good wizard for making sure the data is imported correctly. Excel works too.
Clear Skies,
Antone
