We have built a class LogMessage that allows for the building messages in different format's, one format is a key-pair the LogMessage builds a key that starts the message. The LogMessage key typically starts with the abbreviation of the originating Class name - then a 4 digit number ( you could use a larger number ) that identifies a specific code block within the class. We then inform the user of the specific error message key and repository name and they can then send that to us. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 12:22 PM Subject: Locating log entries
