Only my requirement is that to change the proces archiving properties like Archiving Type can be change dynamically to cyclic-continous or cyclic-slective by means of script or tag. Regards Ritesh

If all you want is to toggle betweencyclic-continuous and cyclic-selective then you could do this with some clever scripting. Set the archive to cyclic-selective and have the start and stop event set to two internal tags. You could then have a global script that sets the relevant tag high / low depending on what time of logging you want. Hope this makes sense and suits your purposes.
