Thanks for reporting this. It has been fixed in SVN revision 2155. The fix will be contained in the next release.

S'ok - looked up the documentation  and have converted Excel dates to ELOG 'seconds since 01/01/1970' and all has come over fine!

Thanks

Fergus

Hi!

Same for me.

Here is the error:

Cannot find any ??????.log file in this directory.

THANX,

`elconv' is just a simple tool to convert pre 2.0 log files to the current
format. (Well, after all these confusions, dropping it from the future
releases won't be surprising -at least for me- ;) You might try some
well-known text-processing tools ie. preferably awk or perl to make the
required conversions. But I think using comma or tab as the delimiter is not
suitable due to the content of logs. If all you want is importing them to
excel/word, you should play with the delimiter options of mentioned programs
before trying a solution.

Hi Recai. I have several requests of this kind. "Want to import/export to 
comma separated text" or "XML". So one option is to extend elconv to handle 
all kind of conversions 1.x -> 2.x, 2.x -> CSV, 2.x -> XML. An alternative 
would be to write some awk/perl scripts as you noted. The disadvantage of 
this solution would be that they rely on the installation of awk/perl which 
is not given on windows systems. But nevertheless, if anyone volunteers to 
write a conversion tool, I would be happy to include it in the distribution. 
If not, I can put it into elconv.c, but that could take until June, given my 
current work load.

That's strange. I just tried (even with Spanish) and it worked for me. Which version of elog do you have installed? Can you send me your elogd.cfg file?
