Description
Log_status creates a new record in the status-log file. It sets the following database values:
| Col 1 | Col 2 |
|---|---|
| Statlog.Description | txt |
| Statlog.Date | Current date |
| Statlog.Time | Current time in HH:MM string format |
It also sends the message onNewRecord. This is called after the information has been moved to the buffer but before the save. You can use this hook to customize the record data before the save.
During the execution of this procedure, the error handler is temporarily set to this object. If an error occurs inside this procedure, the error will be ignored. This was done to prevent recursion. Often status logging is used to record errors.
