    Event log?

    Is there a way to enter an error in the windows event application log. An
    example would be great

    Hi!

    Not sure if you can do this directly from ASP (at least I don't know how).
    You can however do this in a VB6 com object.

    Check the App.LogEvent method that takes two parameters. First the error
    message (mandatory) and then the optional eventType (1=Error, 2=Warning,
    4=Information). App is a global object in VB defining information like
    version etc.

    App.LogEvent "Oops something went wrong..., 1

    In your COM object you can define a public method that takes two input
    parameters (message, and eventType). Then you instansiate this com object in
    your ASP file and calls the public method with the message you want to write
    and the eventType. Your public method then only calls the LogEvents method
    on the App object using the input paramters message and eventType.

      A typo! Should of course be (forgot ending ")
      App.LogEvent "Oops something went wrong...", 1
