Hi Everyone,

I am new to the world of VB and have hit a stumbling
block.  I have developed a script that so far,

1. retrieves the text from a URL
2. loads this in to a string
3. looks for a specific word within that string
4. if the word exists, outputs a message to the screen.

What I need to do on step 4 is to generate an event in the
windows 2000 application log.  The reason for this is that
I am using the script to check for failures within the web
sites that I have running and if one of the servers fails,
generate an event.  I then have a monitoring tool that is
monitoring the Win2K application log, this tool will pick
up on the failed event and e-mail me.

All I am missing is that last step in the process.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Will the application log do?
From http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/script56/html/wsmthlogevent.asp

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
rc = runLoginScript()      'Returns true if logon succeeds.

if rc then
   WshShell.LogEvent 0, "Logon Script Completed Successfully"
else
   WshShell.LogEvent 1, "Logon Script failed"
end if

Regards,
Ian
