Examining the Log File

The Log File is a text file created by Data Converter to record the results of executing in batch mode.  It is written to the file name and folder specified in Environment Setup.

If a log file of the specified name already exists, then new log entries are appended to it.  If it does not exist, a new file is created.

Entries are written to the log file for both normal and abnormal termination.
