XXX has generated errors and will be closed by windows

[David Pierce]

Hi Everyone,
I have a lame Q. I have an App that "has generated errors and will be closed
by windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being
created"

My Question is this, where is this log saved?
I have a file called Error.log in the directory of my App, but it does not
seem to have much info in it. I can't find anything in the Event log either.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you

I have had this happen many times.. and the log is created
I believe in the folder: c:\windows\system32\logfiles

You can do a search in the c:\windows directory as well
for *error* or *.log as well to try and find it.

I cannot recall the exact name of the log.. its been a
while.

Good luck!

Look here:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\DrWatson\drwtsn32.log

There is no windows directory in Win2K unless left over from an upgrade
of Win9x. In Win2K the system directory is WINNT, and there is no
"logfiles" directory in the WINNT\System32 path.
