I have a single record in my archives here that shows the Barometer at 0

I haven't been in space, lately (though my head is often there by itself)... so I'd really like to either modify the record, or delete it, so that I don't have this one bogus value screwing up my pretty graphs!

Is there any way I can change or remove that record? I've found it in the .txt files... (Nov 12, one single click). But I think you're going to tell me that all the graphs and calculations are based on the raw WLK files... which means I'm SOL?

Thanks!

Chris

Yes, they are. Unless you are very comfortable editing binary files, I don't have an answer for you. mhweather uses WL to edit his WLK files ...

How did it get corrupted anyway?

You can install the Linux WINE windows "emulation" software and install/run Davis' WeatherLink software and edit the bad record. As mteel said, I do this to fix my records.

Not really sure. I think it might correlate with when I was adjusting the elevation... but i would have thought it would have corrupted more than just one record.

Oh well. I'll install WL on my Windows box and edit the file there.

thanks!
