Description
===========

MyEventViewer is a simple alternative to the standard event viewer of
Windows. As oppose to Windows event viewer, MyEventViewer allows you to
watch multiple event logs in one list, as well as the event description
and data are displayed in the main window, instead of opening a new one.
Also, with MyEventViewer you can easily select multiple event items and
then save them to HTML/Text/XML file, or copy them to the clipboard
(Ctrl+C) and then paste them into Excel.

Using MyEventViewer
===================

MyEventViewer doesn't require any installation process or additional DLL
files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file -
MyEventViewer.exe
The main window of MyEventViewer has 2 panes: The upper pane displays the
list of all events. When you select a single event in the upper pane, the
lower pane display the description and data of the selected event.
By default, all event logs are displayed in the main window of
MyEventViewer. You can easily remove/add the logs that you want to view
by using the 'Logs' menu.



System Requirements
===================

This utility works on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, and
Windows Vista. However, be aware that the event viewer of Windows Vista
displays more event details than MyEventViewer.



Translating MyEventViewer to other languages
============================================

In order to translate MyEventViewer to other language, follow the
instructions below:
1. Run MyEventViewer with /savelangfile parameter:
   MyEventViewer.exe /savelangfile
   A file named MyEventViewer_lng.ini will be created in the folder of
   MyEventViewer utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text
   editor.
3. Translate all string entries to the desired language. Optionally,
   you can also add your name and/or a link to your Web site.
   (TranslatorName and TranslatorURL values) If you add this information,
   it'll be used in the 'About' window.
4. After you finish the translation, Run MyEventViewer, and all
   translated strings will be loaded from the language file.
   If you want to run MyEventViewer without the translation, simply
   rename the language file, or move it to another folder.
