There are 5 files. The file names do not change. And from some basic tests that seems to work perfectly and quickly... The only reason I figured I needed to us the Text File Begin Process was that I wanted it to scan through the file until it came upon anything new that had been added and to only scan that. And I figured it needed to only scan the last little portions because thats what is going to be updated.

Sort of new to Macro Express and very new to the forums. I have searched everything I could find here, in the tutorials, and everywhere else I could think of because I have a feeling that this is something very simple. And I believe this is the command I need to use Text File Begin Process but after testing I cant figure out how to make it work for me. A little background: I am trying to process a number of text files that multiple people use that range anywhere from 30 lines to 1000's of lines. The problem: What I am looking to do is find a process to "read" the files every so often, and if it finds a word/words that it gives me an alert. What I have: LoL The alert... Microsoft Sam telling me that "you are a lazy bastid" in a wave file. Thanks for any input... NRD
