When I attempt to open the Event Viewer in XP Pro SP2 I
receive the following error:

--------------------------------------------------------

Snap-in Creation Failed.

The snap-in is not created, it may not be installed
properly.

Thanks for the reply Carey. My PATH environment variable
was already set to the value that that article referred
to. Any other ideas?
