T...There is a nice little hack to solve that issue. The log files themselves are unchanged, just the locations. Sometimes the username is different; sometimes it contains the name of the grid also. <br />The trick is to create a soft link to your directory with the name the viewer expects and where it expects to find it. Linux users know this. In Windows, you need to download something called JUNCTION.EXE to do this. Windows supports links to directories but provides no tools to create this. Note how there is a link called Documents and Settings, which points to a directory called Users. This is for backward compatibility with XP. Here the concept is the same. Make a link called jayr.cela that points to JayR_Cela. The viewer won't know its a link. Everything will work fine. You can make as many as needed for all your viewersLaura18 Streeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07136071613975280885noreply@blogger.com
