Does anyone know a way to printout the event viewer data (other than
selecting each page and selecting the print icon on the browser)? I assume


to open/print the entire log?

TIA!

Event Log data is stored as *.evt files, in %windir%\system32\config . There
is Win32 API to read/write from it. It is binary form, so you cannot view
it directly -- which is actually a good thing since otherwise data format
can never change and code stagnates.

I usually use a tool like LogParser to query the Event Log data, generate
tabular text output of any form/order that I wish, and then print that with
notepad:

this data is written to an accessable file somewhere on the server
(specifically where?). Further, can I use notepad or (similar text editor),
to open/print the entire log?
