monitoring trace files

[junkone]

I am running a automated strategy and i find that there are a couple of areas that i cannot monitor via my strategy that is normally logged in the trace files.
I want to monitor the trace file and send me a text alert if it finds any exceptions as i can manage them myself.

what tools are out there that will help me in monitoring. I prefer free ones but i am open to economical commercial ones too.

Hello junkone,
Unfortunately I am not aware of any such 3rd party tools.

I will however leave the thread open for our forum members who can shed more light regarding it.

Just open it with a StreamReader, and read the lines.
