If the emails contain the log files as attachments, then you can save the attachments as separate files and Analog should be able to process them. Check the warning and error messages when it runs in case it has trouble with your log format. If the log files are the *content* of the emails you may have a problem. Likely the email system split the log file lines and you will have to come up with some way of recombining them. The best I can think of is a perl script, but you might be able to do it with VBscript as well. If the lines are not split then all you need to do is remove the headers from the emails. Again you could do this with a script. Alternately, you may be able to come up with some LOGFORMAT lines to tell Analog to ignore the headers and process the rest of the file. See http://analog.cx/docs/logfmt.html for details on the LOGFORMAT command. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help/unsubscribe.html | | Digest version: http://lists.isite.net/listgate/analog-help-digest/ | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives +------------------------------------------------------------------------
