Thanks I'll create it as retroactive. Problem is, how can I tell the broker to purge the msgs at midnight so I get only msgs from the current day? Would I just schedule a messageConsumer.close() ?

For topics, normally you only get messages sent after you start subscribing (unless you use persistent topic subscriptions) though ActiveMQ supports Subscription Recovery for this kinda stuff... http://activemq.apache.org/subscription-recovery-policy.html -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/ Open Source Integration http://open.iona.com
