Exporting the Audit Log
You can export audit log entries for archiving or for detailed analysis
in another program, such as Microsoft Excel. When you click the
Export button, the audit log entries matching the current display filter
are saved in a tab-delimited text file. For example, if Production is
selected for Sources in the Display area of the Audit Log Viewer
dialog box, only events from the Production application will be
displayed and exported. The Export log to file dialog box lets you
select the location and file name for the exported file. See the online
help topic “Export the audit log” for step-by-step instructions.
Windows Security Features
ID Works software uses features of the Windows 2000 Professional,
or Windows XP operating system to enhance the security of your
identification system.
Each user of a Windows 2000 or Windows XP workstation or network
must have a Windows user account. You can use the privileges
associated with those accounts to restrict users to read-only access
to ID Works project files.
Installing and Uninstalling ID Works Software
You must be logged in to the Windows operating system using a user
name with System Administrator privileges to install or uninstall ID
Works software. This helps prevent accidental deletion of the
software.
Locating Project Files
By default, ID Works project files are located in the C:\Program
Files\Datacard\ID Works\Projects directory, although you can select a
different location for the ID Works directory (and consequently the
Projects subdirectory) during installation. You can move project files
after installation, perhaps placing them on a server, where they can
be accessed by as many ID Works computers as you have in your
system. Placing project files on a server simplifies the process of
updating projects that are used on multiple computers.
