Hi Ian,

And thus Ian let it be known to Peter:

  PL>> I'm writing a program that gathers info from a log file,
  PL>> the problem being that the log file is in use by the
  PL>> program when my program is run.

  IS> You need to have the program that's writing the log open it as
  IS> write-only, deny write; then other programs can open the file for
  IS> concurrent reading.

Thanks for that..

Cya,

Pete
