IT Issue Trend Analysis With RapidMiner?

Hi,
I am a manager of an internal IT help desk. We're wanting to do some trend analysis on the trouble calls that we receive so that we can perform root cause analysis to eliminate the root problems from our environment. I have a single column excel file that I exported our work order database which contains the work order descriptions. I was hoping that I could use RapidMiner to to analyze the data to find patterns. Basically I need to compare the records to themselves to see if any trends exist. Unforutnately, I'm dealing with unstructured data that can differ depending on who entered the work order in the first place. Below (in blue) is an example of the type of data that is in the excel spreadsheet. Each row represents a separate work order that was submitted. Could RapidMiner be useful in this application? If so, could somebody point me in a direction where I could get started? I've already watched some of the video tutorials on the Vancouver Data blog and I've even made a few quick processes in RapidMiner but I'm not exactly sure which operations I need to manipulate my data in a fashion that will be useful to me. I'd greatly appreciate any insight you would be able to offer! Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I think you will need to go into the Text Mining Direction. This way you will be able to look at the co-occurrences of words and for example get to know, which words will be used together most frequently. (It seems to me to be something like "Word", "File" and "Delete"
)
And if you have something like a label column (Or at least having a fixed, time based order of the texts, you will be able to check if there's a shift in these patterns.
Greetings,
