I was wodering if it is possible to read thru the files in a folder and capture the last line in every file csv file and write to a logfile that has the name with date and time Also, is it possible that when capturing the last line , I have to extract the last field value compare it with a base value and if it is greater than the base value then write it the log file.

Since it loops thru each file in the folder, base values for each file keep changing. I am not quite sure how to do it. Any help would be great. Thanks, Yukta.
