Corion -- The file is overwritten each time there is an error, so there won't be a next error listed. This file just stores the error and sends that info in an email to us, then when it fails the next time it is overwritten with the new error message. I am just trying to get a history of the errors to show my TSM group what I am seeing with my DB backups. But without all the "online backup of blatty blah failed etc."

Not sure if I am going to change the way I get the date/time stamp cause this is how we already capture this info in all the other scripts on all the other servers and it would probably be too much of a hassle to mess with right now. Thanks for the tip and response.
