SQL error log change

[Wolfie]

Okay this is very minor but I imagine would be a very welcome change. For the file name of the log files, instead of having MM_DD_YY, switch it around to be YYYY_MM_DD. As it is now, since the logs are sorted by name in the ACP when going to view them, you could have logs from January appearing even if you happen to be in February. Additionally, doing a reverse sort would work wonders, so that the logs are shown newest first. The reason for having the year shown in 4-digit format is to reduce confusion over what the number stands for. Granted, it should no longer be mistaken for a month, but someone used to a DD_MM_YY format might think it's the 13th day. Having all digits will make it clear that it's the year and not the day. Yes, they can easily look at the "File Date" but that's only if in the ACP. The filename alone isn't much help to them though.


As is now...

The other idea I had, which I believe would be extremely overkill and less useful, would be to make the name fields (file name, file date, file size) clickable for sorting, along with the options to sort by numerical date (versus alphanumeric) and asc/desc sorting.

+1 for changing the file name to YYYY_MM_DD.
