I have backup logs in created by NT Backup I want to import into a canned report for Crystal 8.5, I also am using Back up Exec by Veritas with I believe use to be a Seagate product. Is there anything out that would give me daily reports in Crystal Rather than studying all these Backup Logs in Notepad?
 
Since you can use the MS Text driver to create an ODBC connection to a text file, you may want to try using the log as a datasource for the report.

Have not done this myself with a backup log, but I have used text files in the past.

Just a thought.

Cheers,
