I do think that including an offset in the log is better than letting the analyzer handle it. It could happen that logs are analyzed together from different parts of the globe and the resulting automation would be nice, especially for net-error automation. log-preamble... #Preamble-begin and #Preamble-end could make things easier for analyzers and the inexperienced statistician. It is sometimes difficult to quickly figure out what is what. I'll raise the two new? directives and give you three. #GMT-Offset #Preamble-begin #Preamble-end magnus ---------------------- Magnus Mengelbier tel.
