Hi James
First of all, thanks for your response. I'm almost certain with the properties file. But I guess that, I'm missing something in my java code. As I'm new to this I need a little more info on this. Do I need to use something like this? Category.getInstance("NEWFILE") and Category.getInstance("NEWCONSOLE") Or Logger.getLogger("NEWFILE") and Logger.getLogger("NEWCONSOLE") Please help me out with sample java code to access the new categories I define in log4j.properties. Thanks Again.

You will just want to set the Threshold to ERROR on NEWCONSOLE.
