EVE_INGEST Seems to be working.

Logbook entries created during field visitations have been entered into
this tklog data base through yesterday's visit at site 3 (950809).

The procedure is:
	- Use Matt's Procomm logbook scripts running on the Compaq
	- Manual copying of the data base files to the PC
	- Run Paradox on the PC and ingest the field records
	- Run Matt's Paradox script to generate a tklog report.
	- copy the rpt file and manually insert it into:
		/home/aster/projects/SCMS95/log/tklog.log

	Saved old version:
	    /home/aster/projects/SCMS95/log/tklog.log.save.original.95081

122: SOFTWARE/none Sat 12-Aug-1995 18:05:07 GMT New TKLOG Import function : Compaq Logbook entries added
Matt loaded a new TKLOG yesterday.
I tried the new feature of IMPORT for other tklog structured log files.
It seemed to work OK, but there was an error message on the first
go around which led me to believe it didn't work.  However, it did, 
which i discovered after running the import again.  That resulted in
some grief in forcing a hand edit of the log to remove duplicates.

I added more records from the Compaq using the IMPORT function but
it is necessary to remove entries from the text file generated by
Paradox to avoid duplication.  Since the Paradox report sorts by
station number, it becomes a pain in the ass to search through the
file and editing out what we don't want.

The logbook is going to need to be hand edited at the completion of the
project.  It would be nice to have a logbook sort and 'merging' routine.
