If I set USERCASE SENSITIVE, I still get all lowercase names in the User Report. > Suppose you had "HK568512" and "adam brown" in the logfile. These > need to be combined if USERCASE is insensitive. Accepted. That doesn't explain why my User Report has "adam brown" when I specified "Adam Brown", and USERCASE SENSITIVE. >> Does FILEALIAS do this too?

That's not really the problem. All of the Logonids start with "hk". So I can easily get all the unaliased logonIDs if I use USERALIAS and USERSORTBY ALPHABETICAL, because all the unaliased IDs will be sorted into a single block. But if I use USERREPALIAS, the ALPHABETICAL sort is actually based on the original, unaliased userID, (which starts with "hk"), so the unaliased users are scattered throughout the User Report. Actually, I might be able to get away with using USERSORTBY FIRSTDATE, as the unaliased users are, by definition, users who haven't logged in to the webserver before, so they should filter to the bottom of the report.
