Am unable to access Log in Windows 8.1. Don't have Excel, but would get if necessary. Have tried Corel Calculate, but can't get necessary info to build spreadsheet. Adobe doesn't recognize file. Appreciate any suggestions. ISY Version 4.2.3. 

I use Notepad++

 

Michael.

Notepad++ is good as Michael indicates. I use win 8.1 and excel and that works ok as well.

 

I believe when you press the "view in excel" button, excel specific macros are added to the file stream and you pretty much need to use excel to look at it. My version of excel, 2013 and it makes me approve use of an excel macro in the file. The macro does provided formatting and shading which is helpful

 

Also, excel allows you to do log analysis with filters or pivot tables if you are familiar with those. With pivot tables you can focus in on dates and or devices, and check up on programs and access from the web / mobile devices.
