No. The most imporatant thing is that the very first line start with "!!LOG_FORMAT" and the subsequent list of tokens from the "#Fields:" line. The remaining "#" lines are generally only an issue when the log format changes. If you send me a copy of the first several lines of your log file, as modified, I might be able to make a more specific diagnosis. I haven't checked into all of the details of the new WebSTAR 5.x WLF format, but I know that the log file edit I suggested has worked for at least two people.

For example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system. -- Peter van der Linden, Expert C Programming, Deep C Secrets +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | This is the analog-help mailing list.
