gINT v. 5 Agency Reports:
  Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources:  Forms 6 & 7

=================
REVISION HISTORY:
=================
29 December 2003:
1. Converted to version 5/6 format.
2. Made cosmetic changes in Input to make data entry easier.
3. Made changes to the reports to make maintenance easier.
4. Replaced the fields "Latitude" and "Longitude" in the FORM7_POINT table with:
  Latitude Degrees
  Latitude Minutes
  Latitude Seconds
  Longitude Degrees
  Longitude Minutes
  Longitude Seconds

You only input the numbers in these fields.  The report puts these together with the appropriate symbols (°, ', and ") after each.  With projects created with previous versions, the report will also use the previous "Latitude" and "Longitude" fields if it can't find the new fields.

None of the modifications affected the underlying database or report structures.  Files are compatible with previous versions.
----------------------------------

11 January 2002:
  Changed Form 7 to meet requirements of 3/2001 revision:
    1. Renamed form from FORM7 to FORM7 - 3/2001.
    2. Changed the layout to reflect the new design.
    3. Changed the database structure by adding the new table FORM7_WATER_CONDITIONS.  See special notes section at the bottom of this document if you need to convert an existing project to the new structure.
    4. Made internal changes to report and database to take advantage of the capabilities of the program introduced since the initial release of the files.  These changes do NOT affect the behavior of the report or database.

    Bring up gINT.
    Move to the Utilities application group and then to the Lib Merge/Copy application.
    Mark "Merge From".
    Specify the source library file as PADER.GLB.  Remember to specify the path or use the launch button (...) to select the file with a file dialog.
    Check the selection and query options to best meet your needs.  If you wish to merge all of the above, mark Select All and Never Query.

SPECIAL NOTES:
1. If you were using the original (1997) versions of the file and need to change a existing projects to the new database structure:
  A. Perform the installation as described above.
  B. Move to Utilities:Convert Projects.
  C. Select the PADER.GDT data template for the Data Template field.
  D. Leave the Correspondence File field blank.
  E. Select the project or projects to convert using the browse button [...] right of the Convert Files field.
  F. Click the Execute button at the bottom of the screen.

This will work if you made no field/table name changes in the original database structure.  If you did, data could be lost in this process.  If you find this to be the case, a backup of each of the converted projects is made (*.ORG extension).  Restore the originals and call gINT Software tech support.

Note that the "Latitude" and "Longitude" fields will not translate.  They will have to be reentered in the new fields described in the Revision History above for 29 December 2003.
