Reading NT Event Log

[Ian_Billingsley]

Hello all,
We are currently developing a Labview application that needs to check for and read events in the standard NT Event Log. This file exists as an odd Binary file in NT and is therefore tricky to read. We have found an EXE that will dump the current Log to a CSV file but we were hoping that there may be an active X reference that we could use to read the NT log directly.

Has anybody done this in Labview or any other Language?

Regards

I have a customer that does something like this. He reads a CSV file also. However; he does this in Visual C++. I recommend checking the Microsoft support pages in addition to this one. There may be information there that can help you.

Good luck
