The General tab allows you to configure general settings for DArc32. You will need to select a location from which the logs and audit files will be selected, known as the Source Log & Audit File Location. This typically is the DCS or Maestro work directory or an XStudio source log directory. You can use the ellipse (...) button to the right of the directory display to launch a directory picker. UNC addresses are supported by DArc32.

The Target Location entry is the default location you will archive log and/or audit files to. For instance, you could choose a Zip™ drive or floppy drive. This is where the files that are archived will be placed, either individually or zipped to a single file in a session.
There are several "checkbox" items that determine the default behavior of DArc32, including whether or not to archive log files, archive audit files, zip the files you archive and perhaps delete the files from the source location after archiving.

These settings are default values - they can be changed from the main dialog as needed for a particular archive session. |
The [Save] button will be enabled if you change any settings and should you try to exit without saving your changes, you'll be asked to confirm that you wish to exit the preferences dialog without saving any changes.
