Forgot to generate log file. What to do?

[#1]

Hi all,

  This is one problem that is always bugging me. I often reload my files (which take over 2 hours) and forget to check 'Generate Log File'. Is there any other way I can generate it in such cases. Also, how do I make it a default setting?

Hi,

You can do the following settings go to Document setting->general->check mark on GenerateLogfile.

Hi Tom. Generating a log file from the Document settings is not the issue. I wanted to know if there is any other way in case one forgets to check the setting before reload.

Hi Mate:

This approach would make sure to enable generate log option whenever you open the app.

Step1:

Sub EnableLog  

'Macro snippet from the API gudie.  This will enable the GenerateLog property.

  set docprop = ActiveDocument.GetProperties

  docprop.GenerateLogfile = true

  ActiveDocument.SetProperties docprop

End Sub 

Step2:

Set a trigger On Open from Document Event Triggers and run the EnableLog macro...

Hope this helps...

Thanks,
