Thanks. I tried to edit the property file to protect the innocent, and
mangled it.

Actually, they were always going to one of the log files. But you
pointed me in the right direction.

Thanks

My real problem was that Netbeans was putting the log4j.properties file
in the sublibrary, and it was getting read first.

I've read and re-read the complete manual, and I think I get the concept
of "additivity" but I don't understand how to control them in the
properties file.

Is there a source for more examples of log4j.properties files and
options, syntax, etc?  The manual has lots more on XML formats and
controlling it from within Java than it has on simple properties.

Even the Wiki seems to not have much (or much I can find) on properties
files.

Where possible, I much prefer good ol Java properties files.

Thanks
Pat
