Hi Doug, Knowing and believing are two different things. That's about the only I learned in Sunday school. Although I knew this to be the case, I didn't apply what I knew when I was testing the "problem". I've just tried touching the new file I wish to log to _before_ sending a HUP and it works great. Apologies if this was an FAQ. *cringe* Thanks, Sheldon.
