It's part of a default IE4/5/6 install - if you're running IIS, you've got
WSH installed. (And the original poster specified Windows 2000, which
definitely has VBscript installed).

If you're already familiar with writing macros in Excel or Word, VBscript
will not pose any significant difficulties. The same can't be said for
perl of Tcl, by any stretch of the imagination.

I never said that Tcl has no value - I said it's not an obvious (or even a
good) choice for someone starting from scratch in a Windows environment.
The cross-platform nature of perl and Tcl is obviously an advantage, and
in some cases it's enough to make up for the difficulty in learning to use
them. But equally, for many people, the cross platform nature of perl and
Tcl is irrelevant for many people, and the ease of use of VBScript is
likely to be far more important to them.

You might want to read my posts again - I didn't make any recommendations
on configuring Analog scripts to match specific file names. In fact, the
only recommendation I made is to use daily logs, rather than weekly logs.

If the system administrator makes arbitrary changes to the systems
configuration, there's no point in trying to engineer a 5 line script to
cope with all the potential possibilities. Analog won't uncompress a log
file unless it's specifically told to recognize the .zip extension, and
where to find the relevant compresser, so it would require a configuration
change anyway. If you have to change the configuration file, it's hardly a
burden to change the script while you're at it.

Reading 6 months worth of log files to generate a 7 day report isn't
"better" for many people.

If you have to manually intervene to run the scripts, then you can
manually deal with any issues that arise - there's no point in spending 3
hours now to save 1 hour later. (And if you're scheduler is failing even
occassionally, you're solving the wrong problem by fixing the scripts,
rather than the scheduler).

So add
Monday = dateadd("d", - (Weekday(date, 2)), date)
to the script - the script was deliberately kept as simple as possible,
and I explicitly said "Here's a VBScript for analysing the last 7 daily
logs", and I also was quite explicit that it did not meet the original
posters need for handling weekly log files.

No, it's not. She specifically requested WEEKLY log file rotation.
But even if she did want to do monthly reports, the FROM and TO directives
can already do exactly what your script claims to do:
FROM -00-0101
TO -00-0131
will analyse the logs from the start to the end of last month, no matter
which day in the current month that you run Analog on (Analog doesn't care
that April only has 30 days - the TO example above is directly from the

I've just started using Analog. I followed instructions & it worked fine. However, what I really want is a list of user names & the times they spend on the web site.
