A rather archaic method. if you know the path of the report file
make a batch file
something like:

find  "Error flag string" ReportPath > c:\Failed.txt
notepad c:\Failed.txt

Use >> for appending > will overwrite.

FIND [/V] [/C] [/N] [/I] "string" [[drive:][path]filename[ ...]]

  /V        Displays all lines NOT containing the specified string.
  /C        Displays only the count of lines containing the string.
  /N        Displays line numbers with the displayed lines.
  /I        Ignores the case of characters when searching for the string.
  "string"  Specifies the text string to find.
  [drive:][path]filename
            Specifies a file or files to search.

Then your error report is but a click away.
