     Since you will be opening and closing this log file all day long, why
don't you just create a normal filePro file and log the entries to that with
a normal lookup?  You could even put a date stamp, user ID and other info
into each record so that you could delete or archive older records out of
this file on a continuous basis.  

     If you ever needed to recreate the log file without the extra filePro
fields, you could do so by simply making an ordinary filePro report, or by
using the export command.
