I have a script that reads a log file line by line.

In the log file I want to pull a date, and string of number similar to a mac
address.

The script starts of by creating the necessary object references
(fileSystemObject, New RegExp, etc)

Then it does 2 input msgboxes.
The first for a date
The second for the string of numbers

These are stored in variables for my regex patterns.

Now I have tried many different variations and usage with patterns but I
can’t seem to narrow down the pattern I want.
This is an example of the log file
1/1/2005 12:48:17 AM : Received update - Name: 09900935673, Device ID:
000001380038b7e3, IP:X.X.X.X
1/1/2005 12:50:14 AM : Received update - Name: 09900935681, Device ID:
0000013800389f56, IP: X.X.X.X

This log file is very big with many entries. The way string of numbers
(09900935673) and the date are how I can differentiate the log entries.

I want to be able to look at the read the log file match the pattern I want
for the date, and the string of numbers and dump the whole line.

Can anyone please help me?

Thank you,

Juan
