So if the log file ends at the end of last month and I run Analog within
the first 6 days of the next month I will get last 7 figures but they
will diminish as time marchs on, day by day. Thus,
Run on 1st I will get the last 6 days of the previous month
Run on 2nd I will get the last 5 days of the previous month
.
.
.
Run on 7th I will not get any last seven info as we have moved past the
last seven?
Is this right? Basically this whole scenario is based on date of run
and when the last day in the log file is, in my case it is the last day
of previous month and if we are out more than 6 days from it we don't
get any LASTSEVEN info in our output file.

This is because without a TO command, LASTSEVEN gives figures for the 7
days previous to the date of running the Analog analysis, rather than
the last 7 days in the log file.

seven will not appear?
Worse than that - unless you include a TO command, if you want the last
seven days figure you need to run Analog on that data immediately. If
you wait 2 days, last seven will include 5 days from the log file plus
the 2 days you waited.
But you can always script in a TO command on the command line, perhaps
based on the filename or however you make the determination of what to
analyze.
