Where is the time log?

[nycL45]

In the past, the log was located in the VW folder so, where is the VW12.5 log these days? Oh, BTW, I do have the log feature activated in the Preferences.

If you are on a Windows computer, it should be in your user data (C:Documents and settings/Username/Application Data etc.). I haven't tried unchecking the log time box, but I do believe you need to check the appropriate settings box.

It's possible that your Application Data folder is "Hidden". If it doesn't appear in your "Username" folder, click on Tools>Folder Options>View Tab>Show Hidden Files and Folders.

I found mine in Nemetschek/Vectorworks.

I don't see a way to tell VW where to create this file or why MS hides them??!

Thx for the responses. Yep, I'm Mac; I thought this was a generic issue.

I did a search on "Application Data" and found nothing on my HD.

So, I still need some help on this.

I did almost exactly this (I did 3 mos, not 12) before posting here and just did it for 1year. I got the same results. Did you actually find posts pertaining to the log location? If so, please post references.

Katie, are you out here? Please help.

I didn't try it before, just did the search I got this hit.

Ray, thanks for that. I just tried it again and up it came. I did something wrong earlier - who knows what. I selected "*Discussion Areas*" this time and maybe that was what I should have done to begin with.
