getting data out of event viewer on admin tools

  • Hi,

    I need to get a list of errors out of event viewer, on a particular server, on a weekly basis. I can see how to limit the search to errors only, and by date range, but cannot get the event description out - unless the export is by clicking on Application and Save Log File As. But I cannot see then how to limit to errors only.

    I know the workaround is simply to export the log file in it's entirety and delete everything I don't want - but ideally I'd like to just export what I need, then I can report on that file each week. Exporting automatically the same time each week would be even better!

    Hope someone out there can help a newbie

    Regards,

    Jules
