Although the release did not automatically initialise monthly-all-time extreme records, the new monthly records editor provided in that release had a "fetch dayfile" button. By clicking just one '''Copy''' button, the one ''in the header row'', all the relevant daily records were copied into the monthly-all-time records for the month of the selected tab. Therefore by doing that again for every other tab (except any tab for a month when you had never used the original Cumulus), and then clicking '''OK''' button, you manually initialised all the parameters (assuming your dayfile had all the parameters - see [[Calculate Missing Values]]).
=Correction of extremes for past days=
Since '''today.ini''' is used to create lines in '''dayfile.txt''', you can follow instructions in [[Amending_dayfile]] to make any necessary corrections for past days.
=Correction of extremes for today=
There is no facility provided to edit any other content of [[today.ini]]. Manual correction may be possible, but do read advice on [[today.ini]] page.
== There is an error in today's total rainfall ==
Please note that this edit does not affect "rain rate", "maximum hourly rain", "maximum 24-hour rain", or "rain since midnight", nor does it update every data log line so it has correct rainfall counter reading. Also, if you ask MX to automatically insert a new row into a monthly table on your database server whenever a new line is stored in the [[Standard_log_files]], your database will retain incorrect values, as these are not updated by this correction.
Please see [[Today.ini#Editing_rainfall_in_today.ini_within_Cumulus]] for details of how to edit those related fields.
