INFO: Default Filename for Text File Error Log: VBEVENTS.LOG

• Microsoft Visual Basic Control Creation, Learning, Professional, and Enterprise Editions for Windows, version 5.0 on the following platform: Win95

SUMMARY

When you invoke the LogEvent Method in your Visual Basic program running under Windows 95, a text file is created with the filename VBEVENTS.LOG in the default directory if you leave the LogPath Property blank. The LogPath property allows you to set the path and filename of a log file.

MORE INFORMATION

You can log events in your Visual Basic program by using the LogEvent method. If your program is running under Windows NT, the specified events are logged in the NT Event Log. Under Windows 95, the specified events are logged to a text file, vbevents.log.

You can change the location and the file name of the event log by setting the LogPath property to the path and location of your choice and setting the mode argument of the LogMode property to vbLogToFile.
