LLigetfa,
I have been playing around with the code you sent and I can't even get this simple code to work...shows how scriptwriting deficient I am huh. Anyway, I have created c:\kix4.02\log.txt which I am assuming is my existing log file, which contains the lines with the heading, or first charachters of 20020126. I rem'd out the delete stuff and also created c:\kix4.02\newlog.txt. When I run the script I get the beep and get sent to skip: and the script ends. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong?
