Hi Kirk, Thanks this helps me a little, but not what I was looking for. I am aware of this function already. Regarding the point about the "vertices are hidden in an array in the entity attributes" Is there a way to look at this using Microsoft Access? I'm trying to investigate ways to automate extracting the zone vertices without having to manually go into gINT every time, click Site Map > double click each zone entity > input > export. If i have a large project with dozens of zones, this is too much time. This may be a question not many can answer

Comment on Microsoft update for January 8 prevents users from being able to open a gINT project
Hello again, fellow gINT users, It has been over 24 hours, and I wanted to let you know that we continue to work with Microsoft to find a workaround that will help you until Microsoft can release a solution. At this time we still recommend making a back up of your files before attempting to open them, and uninstalling the patch if possible. If you have been affected, please feel free to reach out to me whether you have been able to uninstall the patch or not. Please include your Windows OS and version, and gINT version. My email is katie.aguilar@bentley.com. Thank you for your patience in this matter. Regards, Katie

Forum Post: Agency Report
I am the data entry person for my company and know nothing about the program other than how to enter the data for our reports. I am typing soil logs using a version of Michigan Dept. of Transportation template that we have had for years and as far as I know have never updated. When I print out the logs, the elevations on some of the logs are overlapping each other. I tried downloading the MDOT report template from here: https://communities.bentley.com/products/geotechnical1/w/wiki/3858/agency-reports But when I try to use that library with the file I have already entered data into nothing showing in the template when I go to print. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Dawn

Forum Post: RE: Agency Report
Hi Dawn, The version of Michigan DOT library and project that you are using seems to be different than what we have on our communities. The Michigan DOT files on our communities have only one log template. The project data file (.gpj) that you have with data does not seem to have associated text expressions that will match this template design therefore you are not seeing any results on the template as per your input data. I will need to see the library and the project file that you are using. Please contact me privately by sending me an email at aparna.matange@bentley.com

Forum Post: RE: Agency Report
We checked the files, changed the Type from an integer to a Text to have them add data in form of numbers and or text. Dawn was able to spread the report into a two separate columns by changing it to newspaper style. The sample template that was provided however was not created from the library file that they were using.

Blog Post: Additional information and a workaround for Users affected by the Microsoft patch
Dear gINT Users, On January 8, 2019 Microsoft released updates (‘Patch Tuesday’) that included a security patch for the JET Database Engine. We have received numerous reports from users who are unable to open gINT projects after installing this patch. This patch was included in several Windows Updates (KBs) including those listed below (and possibly others). We have been working with Microsoft to find a workaround to help those of you affected. The good news: Microsoft has identified the cause of the issue, and we have a workaround for users that need it until Microsoft releases a fix to the patch. In the following paragraphs I will list the suspected cause, who this workaround applies to, what to do, and how to proceed moving forward. It will be a long post with many details. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. WHAT The January 8 patch did not affect all users. As far as we can discern based on working with Microsoft, it affects users who have a field in their database with 32 or greater characters in the name. Also, the version of the Database the file is created in determines who is affected. Our first recommendation is to uninstall the patch. If you cannot uninstall the patch, or it keeps being installed on your system, another workaround is to convert the database from the older database format (Access 97) to a newer format (Access 2002-2003). This allows users to open and use the file in gINT without changing the long field name(s). This can be done with Access 2010, or the script provided. WHO This Workaround is for users affected by the January 8 Microsoft patch and are unable to open a gINT project. If you are able to open gINT and work in it, even if you have installed the patch, you do not need to use a workaround. However, we do recommend creating a copy of projects you are opening for the first time as there may be existing projects or data templates affected by the patch. Errors received include: Error 3343: Unrecognized database format DatabaseAx.DBCloneFnB: DAO.Database: Unrecognized database format… Database Structural Problem error AxfilegINT.gINTfilevalidFNS errors: WHAT to do for current projects you are unable to open: So you have a project affected by the January 8 patch, and cannot uninstall the patch or it keeps coming back. This information is for you on how to open the project or projects you need to open in gINT. For this workaround you do not need to have Microsoft Access installed, or any specific version of Access. You do need to run it on each project you cannot open and need to open until Microsoft issues a remedy for this error. Do not try to run gINT's "Repair and Compact" function as it may cause data to be lost. Also, as previously recommended, turn off gINT's "Suppress Automatic File Compaction" option under gINT's System Properties. Note: We are providing a VB script that we have tested internally on a few projects and it has worked. We cannot guarantee that it will work in all situations for all users. You are using the code at your own risk. We do recommend making a backup of any projects you use this workaround on before performing the workaround. Create a copy of the project file Download and install the following 32-bit or 64 bit (depending on your system) from Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255 . Note: Use the defaults for installing (Chose “Reinstall or Repair…”) Download the script attached to this post. Delete the “.txt” extension so it is saved as “vbs”. Using Notepad or other simple editor, modify the ‘srcProject’ and ‘dstProject’ values in the updatejetversion.vbs file as follows: The ‘scrProject’ should be the entire path and name of the gINT Project you want to update The ‘dstProject’ should be a new name and where you want it saved. Example: srcProject = "C:\temp\projectname.gpj"; dstProject = "C:\temp\ranscript projectname.gpj" Start the command prompt At the command prompt, navigate to the folder where the script is located If you are unfamiliar with changing directories, you do this by typing in cd followed by the directly path at the command prompt. For example: cd C:\Users\Public\Documents At the command prompt type: Wscript updatejetversion.vbs The script will run. If you return to the folder where you saved the new project, open the project using gINT. Verify all project data is present and data saves. Continue working in the gINT project as you would normally. WHAT to do moving forward with new projects Your project or projects that were affected were created from a data template or project that had the older format. If you try to create a new project from a data template or project which is affected by the patch, you will be unable to do so as, with the January 8 Microsoft patch, it is an unreadable file. To prevent the error from reoccurring with new projects, we suggest you make a data template from the project you just ran through the script, and let users know that this is the data template from which they should make new projects from now on. Inside of gINT, with the new project open: In gINT’s navigation bar select Tools=> Make Data template Navigate to where you want to save the new data template. Enter a name in the file name path. Select Save. You will need to let your fellow users know that this data template should be used for new projects from this point on. In Conclusion As mentioned, this is not the end. Microsoft is working on a solution to this issue as more software applications than gINT were affected. Please watch this space for updates and information once Microsoft has released a remedy.

Comment on Microsoft update for January 8 prevents users from being able to open a gINT project
We find we have to check each day to uninstall the patch. Even if we uncheck the box when it is in queue to load, the patch still loads. It has become our routine. Will be glad for a fix for this!

Forum Post: How can I include soil vapour data (ppm) on the Borehole log so that it appears as line chart?
I am working on borehole logs for environmental-related work. I have seen logs done by other consulting firms where the soil vapour data will be displayed as a line chart (similar to say atterberg limits for geotechnical boreholes). My question is how do I set up my logs to be able to do this? I have included a photograph of a borehole log I found through a google search to illustrate exactly what i mean by line charts in the log.

Forum Post: Subscript out of range (gINT)
We had a new library and database created through Bentley and everything was working great. New features were working and the output was what we needed. I was adding data yesterday and when I went to output into a pdf, I received an error message saying "Subscript our to range (gINT). Now I can not pdf or print the logs. Any suggestions? Dawn

After investigating, we realized that the data in the sample table was not saved. Once correct data was inputted, the pdf was generated correctly.

Hi Connor, Please send me your current library and project and I can look at how you have your report setup. If you are just talking about text moving down then you can try to widen your description column, reduce the text height of the description. or increase the scale to stretch the information out. From just this small snapshot it looks like you have a lot of information in a small area, but really difficult to tell without your files and what all is setup. kirk.Johnson@bentley.com

Forum Post: RE: How can I include soil vapour data (ppm) on the Borehole log so that it appears as line chart?
Hi Alex, Creating this type of graph would be using a plot vs depth entity on a report. In the plot vs depth entity you would just call in the fields in your database that represented that data. First I want to emphasize there are MANY, MANY, MANY ways you can set this up. This is just to demonstrate the capability. You first need a Table to enter the values. It can be very simple where you create a new table with a field for each compound or something more complex. This is a very simple Demonstration of the capability. There is some great reference Material for managing your database (creating new tables and fields), Designing reports, and training. Data Design Tutorial Report Design Tutorial

Forum Post: gINT Civil Tools - Plot Water Levels and Filter by Depth-Related Property
I'm trying to plot water depths but my advance filter is not working. In our gINT database - monitoring records contain WDEP - Depth to Water and DBSE - Depth to base of installation monitoring record. I'm trying to plot the WDEP ONLY so I added an advance filter in gINT Projects. I use a "Filter by Depth-Related Property" However it is still plotting DBSE when I add "equal to WDEP" Any ideas?

You may need to write a text table report in gINT, export it to csv and import that into GCT as a point cloud (or something like that)
