Write to System Event Log

Post by Marcus Tettmar » Wed Feb 01, 2006 8:18 am

Some code for writing to the Application Event Log. Could be used to log different outcomes during script execution.

VBSTART
'WriteEvent
'eventtype: 0 = information
' : 1 = error
' : 2 = warning
Sub WriteEvent(eventtype, message)
Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
objShell.LogEvent eventtype, message
Set objShell = Nothing
End Sub
VBEND

//Log Success
VBRun>WriteEvent,0,Script Started

//Log An Error
VBRun>WriteEvent,1,Oops
