Hey... I'm a novice programmer. I guess that is expected as I am posting a question here! Haven't developed too much other than simple programs in college courses. I have some knowledge of PHP, Java, HTML, and SQL. I'm not necessarily looking for someone to do my work for me (although that would be sweet), I am willing to learn and understand the process myself, I just need some (or maybe a lot of) guidance.
What I need to do is come up with a solution that allows me to run a script that scans a series of IIS5 and IIS6 (W3C) logs, extracting bandwidth information only, converting those numbers into kilobytes (as the default values are bytes), and then import this bandwidth information into Excel.
Can anyone get me jump started on this? Where should I start with? What language(s) is best for the task? What should I research and look into in order to do make this happen?
Thanks
Jason
