Hello,
I would like to group together different fields found on different lines, based on a common field that is found on all lines.

Example Log Lines

2014-03-25 13:45:38,003 - [123456789] Incoming Search Request: project=Project01

2014-03-25 13:45:38,003 - [123456789] count=456, executionTime=334



2014-03-25 13:47:31,012 - [987654321] Incoming Search Request: project=Project02

2014-03-25 13:47:31,012 - [987654321] count=8784, executionTime=1145

I would like to create a table from these lines that looks like:

Project ID count executionTime
Project01 123456789 456 334
Project02 987654321 8784 1145

Is this possible? The only examples I have found, the values to group are always on every line, where as some of my fields only appear on the first or second line.

I have seen as many as 9 lines for a unique ID, but usually it is only 2 or 3 lines

For one ID, is there only two events or there can be more?
