The Date/Time Filters are displayed in the Rules & Filters pane, which is visible along the right side of many RockWorks program menus which process date-specific data (all menus with striplogs, T-Data programs, Aquifer programs, etc.). They allow you to apply a filter to the source data that is passed to the diagram and modeling routines.
If un-checked the program will process all of the measurements, for all listed dates, for the selected data in the Borehole Manager database or Utilities datasheet. (Note that if you have entries for different dates for the same depth intervals for your wells, leaving the date filter off may not make much sense.)
If checked, RockWorks will process measurements for a specific date or range of dates, for the selected data in the Borehole Manager database or Utilities datasheet. Once invoked, you need to specify what type of filter to apply.
- Exact: Click in this button if you wish to enter a specific date (and time, if applicable) for the measurements to be modeled. Click on the down-arrow to the right of the prompt to pick a specific date from the pop-up calendar. You can also click in any of the individual date fields (e.g. the year) and click the prompt's up- or down-arrows or use your keyboard's up- or down-arrows to increment the number. RockWorks will process only the measurements that fall on this date.
- Range: Click in this button if you prefer to enter a beginning and ending date to define the range of dates to be processed. Use the methods described above to select the Starting and Ending dates. RockWorks will process the measurements that fall within this date range.
