I have already asked this question in the "General" Server Forum but maybe it'll be better understood in this forum. --------------- I would like to be able to query an event log using Log Parser (or simular tool) and store the query into an SQL Database - simular to this post:http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/maikkoster/archive/2012/09/28/compare-active-directory-computer-accounts-with-configuration-manager-resources.aspx The events I want are in the ForwardedEvents log file but when I run the query against the database I don't get anything returned. Does anyone have any ideas how I can query this event log on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server? Cheers Tom

Hello, Seems your query is might have related to IIS logs or IIS related logs. So, I suggest you seek help in:https://forums.iis.net/default.aspx?GroupID=51Regards, Ravikumar P

Download and check the below tool. http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Log-Parser-Studio-cd458765 For more information. Introducing: Log Parser Studio. Log Parser forum. Thanks

Thanks but the tools you have given me are focused around the IIS stuff - LogParser isn't just used for IIS. In my question I've asked how to use it in the ForwardedEvents log.
