Query Local Event Log (with WMI)?

coconet

Different parts of a locally-installed application write to the same
custom event log. I would like to query the log and write the data to
an XML string. Can anyone show how that could be done?

Thanks.

Hello,

from .NET you can use the EventLog class. It has an Entries property giving
you access to the entries.

Kind regards,
