REVISION HISTORY
================
18 March 2003:
1. Converted from gINT version 4 to version 5 format.
2. Performed numerous optimizations of the forms and database structure without unnecessarily breaking compatibility with previous database versions.
3. Revised the Abandonment form to meet the 2/2000 revision requirements.  Some database structures were required to change here.  Data input with previous versions of the database may not work completely.
4. Renamed the names of all reports so that previous version would not be overwritten.
5. Renamed the files from WI_DNR98.Gxx TO WI DNR 2003.Gxx.

*********************************

02 December 1999:
1.  Made use of the new captioning capabilities of the program (see the update README.TXT file under version 4.16.073).  This allowed narrower columns in Input with better labeling of the columns.

2.  Renamed the lookup "WDNR_SURFUCE_SEAL" to "WDNR_SURFACE_SEAL" and changed the one reference to it in the CONSTRUCTION table, Surf_Seal field.

3.  Changed the Description property for the fields "SMU_Quantity_x" (x=1 - 4) from:
      Sealing Material Used x:  No. Years, Sacks Sealant or Volume

to:
      Sealing Material Used x:  No. Yards, Sacks Sealant or Volume

4.  Changes to the CONSTRUCTION table and the Well Construction form:
a.  Received request to allow selection of multiple USCS classification near screen.  Previously there was a field in the CONSTRUCTION table called "USC_Screen" that had the lookup "wdnr_usc_screen" associated with it that showed the available choices.  Only one could be selected.  We removed this field from the database and the lookup from the library and added the fields:
    USCS_GP
    USCS_GM
    USCS_GC
    USCS_GW
    USCS_SW
    USCS_SP
    USCS_SM
    USCS_SC
    USCS_ML
    USCS_MH
    USCS_CL
    USCS_CH
    USCS_Bedrock

All are "Yes/No" fields (blank is the same as "No").  You can mark as many as desired.

b.  Received request to use some of the "..._Other" fields as notes, not just to imply the "Other" option.  This affected the following sections:
  1.  Protective Cover Material
      Previously there was just the text field PCP_Matl.  If data were supplied in this field, the "Other" check box was marked.  If this field was blank, the "Steel" check box was marked.  Now there are the fields PCP_Steel ("Yes/No") and PCP_Matl_Other (text).  If PCP_Steel is given the value of "Y" then the "Steel" check box is marked, otherwise the "Other" check box is marked.  The PCP_Matl_Other field merely prints in the space provided on the form and does not affect the check boxes.  Therefore you can now mark the "Steel" check box and give additional information in the text portion.

  2.  Material between well casing and protective pipe
      Previously there was just the text field Matl_btwn_WC_PP.  If data were supplied in this field, the "Other" check box was marked.  If this field was blank, the "Bentonite" check box was marked.  Now there are the fields Matl_btwn_WC_PP_Bent ("Yes/No") and Matl_btwn_WC_PP_Other (text).  If Matl_btwn_WC_PP_Bent is given the value of "Y" then the "Bentonite" check box is marked, otherwise the "Other" check box is marked.  The Matl_btwn_WC_PP_Other field merely prints in the space provided on the form and does not affect the check boxes.

  3.  Backfill material
      Previously there was just the text field Backfill_Below_Filter.  If data were supplied in this field, the "Other" check box was marked.  If this field was blank, the "None" check box was marked.  Now there are the fields Backfill_Below_Filter_None ("Yes/No") and Backfill_Below_Filter_Other (text).  If Backfill_Below_Filter_None is given the value of "Y" then the "None" check box is marked, otherwise the "Other" check box is marked.  The Backfill_Below_Filter_Other field merely prints in the space provided on the form and does not affect the check boxes.

c.  There was an error in the Fill Type![Symbol] property of the "Other" check box for the "6. Bentonite Seal" section.  It was:
Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<CONSTRUCTION.Bent_Seal_Other>>)>> And  And (Not <<HasData(<<CONSTRUCTION.Bent_Seal>>)>>),x04)>>

The double "And And" is the problem.  One of the "And"s was removed to correct it.

d.  Some of these changes required changes to a part of the conversion program.  If you had used a previous version of this database, will be adopting this version, and want to use the database conversion program, you must download the latest version of that program from our Web site (no charge).
*********************************

13 July 1999:
1. Added the Well Information and Inventory forms.
2. Updated the soil boring, well construction, and development forms to match the 7-98 revisions.
3. Replaced log blocks used in the soil boring form with private blocks.
4. Made significant changes to the database structure to match the WDNR desired database format.
5. Renamed the files from WI_DNR.Gxx TO WI_DNR98.Gxx.
6. Renamed the old forms with a suffix indicating year of revision, for example. WDNR_SBL became WDNR_SBL_98.  In this way, your old files and forms will not be overwritten by this new version and you can continue to use the old forms and data.
7. Added the following new lookups:
     WDNR_CASING_TYPE
     WDNR_CONTACT_TYPE
     WDNR_DATA_MAINTENANCE
     WDNR_DRILLING_METHOD
     WDNR_INV_CONTR_TYPE
     WDNR_INV_DATA_SOURCE
     WDNR_LOCATION_COOR
     WDNR_MUNICIPALITY_TYPE
     WDNR_SECTION
     WDNR_WATER_BEARING_FORMATION
     WDNR_WELL_STATUS
     WDNR_WELL_USE
The previous lookups are still in the new files.  If you have changed those lookups and want to keep them, mark the "Select Non-duplicated" option when merging (see the INSTALLATION PROCEDURE section below).

NOTE:  Data input with previous database structures will not work completely with the new forms.  You can continue to use the old forms.  If you must get the old data over to the new structure, you must set up a correspondence file in Data Design:Correspondence File and then use Utilities:Convert Projects.  These are capabilities that were added after the manual was printed.  Documentation can be found the gINT update README.TXT file.  Search for "correspondence" and "convert".  Feel free to call technical support for additional assistance.
*************************************************

Well_Info_Remarks

2. Added POINT.Well_Status (with Lookup WDNR_WELL_STATUS)

3. Moved Govt_Lot field from ABANDONMENT to CONSTRUCTION table

4. Added CONSTRUCTION.Enf_Stds_Apply
*************************************************

16 January 1998:
1.  Added four fields to DEVELOPMENT table:  Responsible_Name
                                             Responsible_Firm
                                             Responsible_Street
                                             Responsible_City_State_Zip
These fields will print in the lower left corner of the WDNR_WELL_DEVELOP form (Facility Address or Owner/Responsible Party Address).

2.  Used the above new fields on the WDNR_WELL_DEVELOP form.  Previously these fields had the Developed By name and firm in them.
*************************************************

22 December 1997:
Corrected errors in WDNR_CONSTR
The Fill Type[!Symbol] Property for the "Local Grid Location":
  "S" check box should read:
    Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<POINT.North>>)>> And (<<POINT.North>> < 0),x04)>>
  "W" check box should read:
    Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<POINT.East>>)>> And (<<POINT.East>> < 0),x04)>>

Corrected errors in WDNR_ABANDON:
The Fill Type[!Symbol] Property for the "Construction Report Available?" No box should read:
  Tile!<<IIf(<<ABANDONMENT.Constr_Report>> = "N",x04)>>

Previously it was:
  Tile!<<IIf(Not <<ABANDONMENT.Constr_Report>> = "N",x04)>>

The "Not " was removed.
*************************************************

09 December 1997:
Corrected errors in WDNR_SBL_PG1:
The Fill Type[!Symbol] Property for the "Local Grid Location":
  "S" check box should read:
    Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<POINT.North>>)>> And (<<POINT.North>> < 0),x04)>>
  "W" check box should read:
    Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<POINT.East>>)>> And (<<POINT.East>> < 0),x04)>>

The <<HasData()>> condition was previously omitted causing the S and W check boxes to be marked when there were not local grid data.

Corrected errors in WDNR_ABANDON:
  The Fill Type[!Symbol] Property for the four check boxes left of the "No" labels in section (4) (starts with Depth to Water) should read:
      Tile!<<IIf(<<ABANDONMENT.Pump_Piping_Removed>> = "N",x04)>>
      Tile!<<IIf(<<ABANDONMENT.Liner_Removed>> = "N",x04)>>
      Tile!<<IIf(<<ABANDONMENT.Screen_Removed>> = "N",x04)>>
      Tile!<<IIf(<<HasData(<<ABANDONMENT.Casing_Left_No_Explain>>)>>,x04)>>
There was a "Not" in the expressions within the IIf.
*********************************

30 November 1997: Corrected errors in WDNR_WELL_CONSTR report template
  Fill property of check box for the Well Casing schedule 40 check box should read ..."40", not ..."4".  For the schedule 80 check box, the Fill property should read ..."80", not "8".

WI DNR 2003.GDT
  gINT project data template.  You will clone this file to create new project files.

WI DNR 2003.GPJ
  gINT project file containing four boreholes of example data.  You can use this file to clarify any input procedure questions by looking at the way the data was entered in the Input application.  You can also output these data using the four reports to see what the final output looks like.

WI DNR 2003.GSC
  A gINT command script that will print examples of all the forms.  See SPECIAL NOTES below.
*************************************************

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
  Copy WI DNR 2003.GDT and WI DNR 2003.GSC to your gINT data template directory (usually C:\Program Files\GINT\DATATMPL or C:\Program Files\GINTW\DATATMPL).
  Copy WI DNR 2003.GPJ to your gINT projects directory (usually C:\Program Files\GINT\PROJECTS or C:\Program Files\GINTW\PROJECTS).
  Merge WI DNR 2003.GLB:
    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 WI DNR 2003.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.
    Move all of the tables from the Available Source Table column to the Tables to Merge/Copy column by clicking the >> button.
    Click the Execute button.
*************************************************

SPECIAL NOTES:
1.  The graphical table and the four graphical text document forms require the full gINT program.  gINT Logs and logWRITER+ can only access the log.  Contact gINT Software regarding upgrade information.

2.  The firm information in some of the reports is taken from the company name, address, location, telephone, and fax information provided by you.  These values can be modified in any screen in gINT with the Help:Company Information menu selection.

3.  Some of the sampler symbols use new tile patterns.  You may need to update your tile library from the SYMBOLS file on the web page.

4.  To reduce input effort, we have placed data entry fields that are shared among the different tables into the PROJECT and BOREHOLE (POINT) tables.  For example, the Govt_Lot field is used by the construction, abandonment, and inventory forms but is input only once in the POINT table.  Notes at the bottom of the input screen when you are on fields will give this information, and other useful notes, where appropriate.

5.  You can print out all the forms quickly using the example project provided by executing the WI DNR 2003.GSC script.  Anywhere in the Output application group, select the File:Command Script:Execute Script menu item and then specify the WI DNR 2003.GSC file for the script.  You will see this file if you click the browse button [...] right of the field.

6. We have not updated our conversion process to convert from gINT to WDNR database structure.  There have been significant changes made to both structures since the introduction of our first conversion program.  Also, version 5 has the ability of writing to the WDNR structure directly, without the aid of an external program.  This requires a significant change in the work we had completed since this is an entirely new process.  We would be happy to complete this process and make it available to our clients but first we would like to know that it would be used.  So please let us know if you want this facility.  Otherwise we will concentrate on issues that are in demand by our clients.
