There's your dilemma. I'd go with the option that makes your log analysis easier, and then have a quick routine that processes the dates in your log for export to another format as needed. The option of interoperability makes sense when and if it's needed, but I wouldn't consider it a tipping point right now. Just make sure you don't paint yourself into a corner. -- -Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.com This communication may be unlawfully collected and stored by the National Security Agency (NSA) in secret.
