That smon_log file only works in I/A versions 6.2 and higher. Assuming you have the legacy historian, you'll need to get your smon messages from there (or from a printer). Take a look at Angel Corbera's website for good coverage on extracting your smon messages from the historian. http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/5825/ac.htm and specifically: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/5825/scripts6.htm for the smon stuff.
