I know this is a palliative and not a cure but I used to create the file and
then open it in an editor, Qedit works very well for this. I then did a
search by the user name I wanted to see. In visual mode this gives you the
whole log entry. (I always had my home line set at the fifth line.) I hope
this helps.

Hi -

I use LOGTOOL frequently to go back and check console log history.  I have
used it for years and usually use Reflection's 'logging' (to a file) for
ease in searching purposes.  I would prefer to be able to narrow down the
search for specific entries (ie: specific user) but have been
unsuccessful.  I don't get any errors in the syntax or format, just zero
records selected.

For example if I use   LOGTOOL>LIST LOG=185;TYPE=115   I will get all
records for the log.  I am able to further reduce it by using the TIME
parameter.  However, as an example, if I use
LOGTOOL>LIST LOG=185;TYPE=115;USER=MANAGER;ACCOUNT=SYS  it doesn't return
any records.

Are there restrictions on TYPE 115 records that prevents the use of USER,
ACCOUNT, GROUP OR JSNAME?  Or is this just another 'end-user' error?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
