    Gail - Will APEX SQL ttol help me to read Log files which are backed up every 3 hours..

    Probably, but it's a damn expensive app. Was over $1000 per licence last time I checked

    Why are you insisting on using the wrong tool for the job here? Log backups are NOT for auditing purposes. If it's some managerial decree, please go and explain to said manager that while possible what he's asking is going to be expensive, painful and complex at best and that there are way better solutions for auditing.
