Hi Guys.
ive set my logbook so that it comes on just before i exit the game and automatically puts in the time and aircraft for me.
i know its a default oiption but now my log book comes up with an error saying that it can not find the write log book and/or the logbook doesnt exits.
it is stopping all my flight times from not saving.

help

thanks

your logbook should be in the My Documents folder along with any saved flightplans you have and should have a .txt extension on it. This is a regular text file if you moved it to some other folder then just put it back as FS looks for it in that folder. I am not sure if you can get FS to look for it elese where.

Take a look at this post from a few days ago, same problem.

It happens now and then; the name of the logbook changes from "logbook" to a string of characters in your FS9.cfg file. Delete the string and you'll be fine.

Apparently I am not the only one who has this strange thing happen. (BTW: it started after I downloaded the Jet Provost and flew it the first time but that could be a coincidence...)
Anyone know why it happens??????

Cheers
