ONLINE HELP from the CD-ROM / Artifact
DatabasesUsing the Detailed Artifact Database Section
Separate data files exist for pottery, pipes, lithic artifacts,
beads, historic ceramics, historic artifacts, and faunal remains.
These files provide very specific information about many of the
artifacts found at Occaneechi Town and can be accessed by choosing Go To
| Artifact Databases at the top of the screen and selecting a specific
artifact category. These data files also can be accessed by viewing
the artifact inventory for an excavated context (under Excavations) and
selecting the More option for a specific artifact entry. See Using the Menus or Browsing the Excavations
for more information.
Browsing the Artifact
Databases The artifact database files are divided into "pages"
of about 88 lines each for viewing. When viewing artifact data, use
the scroll bars to browse through a single page. Use the Page Up, Page
Down, Top Page, and Last Page buttons to move between pages.
Sorting the Artifact Databases It is possible
to sort an entire artifact database by any one field. Simply click on
the small Sort option under any one of the fields. You may only sort
by a single field, and the secondary sort will then be by catalog
number.
Filtering Records in an Artifact
Database It is possible to only look at artifacts that fit a
certain criteria (based on the selection of specific attribute values).
For fields with fewer than 100 different values, you can click on the
drop-down list of values below each field name. You can choose
criteria for more than one field. It is not possible to sort by any
other field than Catalog Number when you have a Filter criteria
selected. Selecting an asterisk "*" is equivalent to selecting all
values in a particular field.
Printing
Artifact Databases It is not possible to print artifact data
files directly from within Excavating Occaneechi Town. However,
the data are accessible on the CD-ROM. See Using
External Files for more
information.
