why not just go all the way and add the entire log db to the database, eliminating the need for flat file logs? As long as the data's encrypted and security is handled properly don't see why that's a problem ;) That's actually one of the last things I did on the game, got tired of jumping from one window to another just to view logs, now the entire logging structure is sql based, based on events, with a wiznet type showlog system that can search by type and person ;) . Of course, i didn't write all of it, just customized it for what I nee, but it works great, so far. The only time I have problems is when I go to boot up and something's causing problems, but that's what GDB's for ;) Excellent idea though.
