clintp, sorry about just listing the file size I should have known better. The log file I was testing on is a total of 1,401,986 lines with 1,401,950 matching my criteria.

I gave a sample of the matching lines in my previous post, but incase you missed it here you go.

CD1\01100809.pdf(1) - [Account Number] Indexed key "654546654". CD2\01100809.pdf(1) - [Invoice Date] Indexed key "10/08/2001". CD1\01100809.pdf(1) - [Customer Name] Indexed key "FOOBAR". CD2\01100809.pdf(1) - [Contact Name] Indexed key "Dr. FOO". CD4\01100809.pdf(20) - [Account Number] Indexed key "54356564".

If you really want the full logfile I could strip out all sensitive data and throw it out somewhere where you can grab it, if this is something you really want to play with let me know...
