Change Date

As long as the VFS Service continues to run, a new Event Log file (*-*-*.txt) is

generated and saved, using the current calendar date for the file name, for every

24 hour period, beginning just after midnight.
To view the log for another date, click on the Change Date command button in

the tool bar, then select the desired log file.
VFS Event Log files can be viewed at any time, even when WinVfs is not

running. The log files are simple text (.txt) files that can be opened directly

using the Windows Notepad application, or any other text editor.
