{edit} Was critiqueing my code, not your's.

Yeah, but what about the dot as in Lurenko's version.

Excuse that brain fart of earlier. Here's some better code.
code:
Break on
$sending='sending FTP_Iconsd.lnk 09/09/2001 20:44:00 (09/09/2001 00:00:00)'

if instr($sending,'sending ')
  $b=substr($sending,9,(instr($sending,'/')-12))
endif
'['+$b+']' ?

$receiving='receiving IMS - Transferring Returns.doc (new file)'
if instr($receiving,'receiving ')
  $c=substr($receiving,11,(instr($receiving,'(')-12))
endif
'['+$c+']' ?
get $_
