David, asking other people to do your work for you is rude. Reading the
documentation doesn't seem like too much to ask before you ask for help.

David, I posted a link to the webpage where COMBINED is explained, and told
you what you needed to do to fix your problem, in my very first reply. Yes,
if I'd known that you weren't going to bother reading the documentation, I
could have saved some time by just posting a LOGFORMAT, but I assumed that
you already had a custom LOGFORMAT to deal with the broken Referrer Report,
and that if you didn't, you'd actually be interested in understanding what
the problem was, so that you could fix it (and the problem with the Referrer
Report). Saving your time isn't at the top of my list of priorities, having
people who have actually read the documentation and can help answer
questions on the list is more important to me (and will theoretically save
me time in the long run).

The LOGFORMAT command is the thing that makes Analog so incredibly flexible.
It is trivially easy to modify, and is well documented. You could have saved
yourself (and others) a great deal of time and frustration by learning how
the LOGFORMAT command works.
