Hi Raj,

Its up to us how to define date variables...

We can define variables same as present in log files to match pattern....Smilie

Hi Raj,
In log file date format is 2012 Jun 06

Also in your previous reply u suggested that the p=1... so what can i set there.
because if i set p=0 and searching from 2012 Aug 01 to now. Though in log file the data available for 2012 Aug 16 ..but its showing only data of 2012 Aug 30..

If cannot compare date format then fetching logic needs to be changed....Smilie

setting p=0 wont work.
what you can do is use loop if log for last N day is not available then start can be modified for N-1 day and so on till NOW
