Hello,

Does anybody knows how to open the logfile in OPL? I want to open the logfile and read the lines 1 by 1 from it (to do some calculations).

I try to open the file c:\system\data\logdbu.dat, but i get the message: File is in use, even when all apps are closed.

Help!

Greetings,
Jack

It's not a file you can IOOPEN or OPEN, it's not an OPL format file or a plain text file. The only way to access it is to write yourself an OPX which uses the supported Log access classes to read from/write to the log.

Thanks for the answer. Can you (or anybody else) tell me if that's also possible with Mobile VB?

because the file is in use no program can read it. (the ones who can are the ones using it 😉 or they kill that what's using the file)
