| | I understand what you're saying. Can you click on the start, scroll to the bottom, hold the shift key and click at the end, then copy and paste? |

| | I'm thinking of alternatives. Can you output the log to a text file? Not sure how the log is generated. You could do a screen capture using Camtasia or Camedia, which would create an avi file while you scrolled through the list. |

| | Just take multiple snips. Page down (don't scroll) and take a snip each time until you get to the bottom of the page. Send 'em all the snips. |
