1) at startup if startupScan is set to 'true' or 'full'
2) whenever a manual Rescan operation is performed

This change is now available in MinimServer update 67.

Have a general question regarding output format of the write all tags option...Got it to work, but I tried a .txt file and a .csv extension but did not work the way I expected. (all data in one column) I wanted to create a pivot table in excel so I could see a nice clean summary of my data. Is this possible and if so, can you please provide example? I generated files called my data.txt and my data.csv under write all tags option. Thanks, Mike

If you upload a sample file here, then I can tell you how to get that into a pivot table.

Thanks, the other option I have is to export to excel via the Metadatics program. I was just trying to enhance my knowledge about how this option works...
