I agree with your speculation. I've looked back over some event log parsing and harvesting that I did last year, and it appears that even the  GetOldest(\$base) won't necessarily give a "good" error, but  GetNumber(\$count) will.

    Thanks chief. Between the two of you, I'm cured.
    I feel as if I didn't take the simple mental step and solve this myself, so I will probably cut off a toe later tonight... but then it's been head-chopping chaos at work lately, and my department has been reduced to its size from 4 years ago as of this week. Yarg. Anyway.. done venting a little.. thanks a ton =)

      Sometimes you are just to close to your own problems to see the light, so save that toe for a real misdemenour:)

      Nice to see that a little speculation can help occasionally, even if only as a catalyst.
