I write to EventLog using standard .NET classes. The resulting error message in the EventLog contains my message and the following text
"For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp."
I would like to remove this text from the EventLog message.

Thanks in advance
 
Jack,

I don't believe you can remove this. It's displayed at the bottom of
every event in the Event Browser, whether or not the event was produced by a
MS product or not.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Nicholas. I had exactly the same question. Just wondering what would
be the rationale for this. It clearly does not make any sense to put this
message given the fact that apps can create their own event log entries.

I have been using the Exception Management Block (found at MSDN) at these messages have never appeared on them. As long as you create your own Event Sink Source etc (this block does it automatically), these extra messages should not appear at the end of the event message
