For displaying and editing the dayfile.txt file. Like the others, highlight any one row and the ''datatables'' software used here will offer '''Edit''' and '''Delete''' buttons that operate on that row. Please don't use this option either when MX has only just started, or within 10 minutes either side of your rollover time, because in both cases MX needs exclusive access to the file, and its use by the datatables software ''could'' cause a conflict. | For displaying and editing the dayfile.txt file.

Note, when you click the Edit button, it pops up a window that shows all the fields (in the highlighted row) vertically with cancel and save buttons visible when you scroll down. It does not show any values from any other files. MX does not provide within this screen any way to read the monthly data logs for a particular day and recalculate the value to place in any field of this dayfile log. In the future it is possible that there might be a separate executable, outside the admin interface that could do this (similar to separate executable mentioned for MySQL functionality, later on this page), but at the time of writing that is no more than a possible very low priority project. | |||
