Event Log - For more information...

[Dave Wurtz]

All,

I'm trying to write messages to the event log and have everything working
ok... almost.

The message that I am sending via myEventLog.WriteEntry displays followed by
"For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp". How can I change this message?

Thanks in advance!

Dave,
As far as I can tell the Windows Event Log viewer itself puts that text
there. So there is no way to remove it per se.

For example, try the following with your event log & source:

Dim log As New EventLog("MyLog", ".", "MySource")
For Each entry As EventLogEntry In log.Entries
Debug.WriteLine(entry.Message)
Next

Hope this helps
Jay
