you'll end up with a rather long file if you use method 2! unless you miss out step 2, and change it to create a new file with line and append log.log.tmp.

AFAIK Not without reading the whole file first and using listprepand(newline,filecontents, "#NEWLINE#") and write it or rename log.log to log.log.tmp append line to log.log append log.log.tmp >> log.log Yuck. If it is a case of reading the log file, learn how to use "tail" ,or "reverse" etc.. tail for windows - > www.cygwin.com At the bash prompt bash# tail -10 myfile.log | reverse [return] will give you the last 10 lines newest first... etc. etc. Justin -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 October 2003 15:13 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ cf-dev ] cffile - Append Is there a way to make the cffile append to the top rather than the bottom.
