I 've been running into errors with Lookout Direct lately. I am running V4.5.1 build 19 on Windows XP Pro V2002 SP 1. I first see a Logos Executable error and then a Lookout error. First: application: lookout.exe version 4.5.1.19 module: lkworks.dll version 4.5.19 Then, hours later, after closing the first error: application: csmain.exe 4.0.0.25 module: unknown application: lkcitdl.exe 4.2.0.20 module: unknown When i tried to restart lookout twice, this error occurred each time: application: lookout.exe version 4.5.1.19 module: latch.cbx 4.5.1.18 A few seconds after opening file explorer it crashed as well: application: explorer.exe 6.0.2800.1106 module: shlwapi.dll 6.0.2800.1106 There was also a system error stating that the Lookout Citadel Server service terminated unexpectedly 1 time. I restarted the computer and things functioned as expected once again. I am using 12 Spreadsheet Storage Objects (each with 1 data point) to store the times that proximity sensors were tripped into 12 separate spreadsheet files. 6 of these typically fire within a second of each other. This happens twice over a 15-minute period. Has anyone experience problems doing something similar? I haven’t found a better way to log this data (I prefer to easily be able to copy it onto other computers and use for further analysis). If you have a suggestion, please let me know. I’ve considered trying to store the timing data in the PLC memory but I am not quite sure how to go about doing that yet. Please let me know if these errors look familiar. Thanks, David.

My Lookout knowledge is limited and I haven't seen what you describe before, but for data logging you might want to look at DataWorx. I 've been very impressed with it thus far.
