Its one folder, but with various log files in, each by date. The format specifically in my case looks like:<br/><br/>MS20230515_orders.LOG<br/>MS20230516_orders.LOG<br/>MS20230517_orders.LOG<br/><br/>I want to set it up so as each new days log file starts, it tails on the end of the previous day.<br/><br/>I tried to set the file name pattern as MS2023%%%%_orders.LOG but this didn't seem to work. Is there a way to make this work, ignoring other log files with different file names in the same folder.<br/><br/>Thanks<br/>&nbsp;Wed, 17 May 2023 08:39:16 GMTelock91https://www.logviewplus.com/forum/post/1766Hi,<br/><br/>Try setting your file name pattern to MS*_orders.LOG.&nbsp; Then set a user defined ignore rule to ignore files older than two days.<br/><br/>Hope that helps,<br/><br/>TobyWed, 17 May 2023 08:39:16 GMTLogViewPlus Support
