    Wow, I'll see what I can do with "tac." Looks like it will work.

    I thought it was a typo at first! That looks like what I need.

    I've been investigating all the other suggestions but I can't fit
    anything
    to this log data. The content varies from line to line there are no
    delimiters
    that I can use ...

    Thanks all.
