Hi, gather a count of all of the lines that are the same
You may have to check each of the lines, because not all the lines are the same. e.g

User logged in successfully at 10:35:33
User logged in successfully at 10:35:34
User logged in successfully at 10:35:35
User logged in successfully at 10:35:37
[download]

The lines above are not the same, because of the changing time the user logged in.

If you tell me, I'll forget.
If you show me, I'll remember.
if you involve me, I'll understand.

Yes... sorry, those were bad examples... I have truncated all of the garbage that is different, such as the time the user logged in... The lines are the same in my script but I just can't figure out how to make the script keep a running total of each line that is the same as another line... I'm thinking I may have to use a LOT of variables to keep totals, or use the database suggested...	[reply]
