Thanks for your reply.
I went through the logs and saw the requests were logged as 200,304, 206
(with the group of 206's appearing from the same IP, I guess this is the
partal content option used by IE with the Acrobat plugin).
So I guess, it is hard using Analog to compile a number of downloads of a
PDF file - you would need to compile results from all different areas of
the report. The CGI would be the best option.
Thanks for your help.
