No filters, Win2k all patches.  Think I may have been wasting your time,
tried emptying all the logs and then executed the code again, and it seems
to work i.e. entries are written to the log.  Must have been some sort of
corruption (sounds a bit lame but that's what it appears like).

The only problem I'm having now is trying to convert the AnsiString that I'm
passing into the function, into a valid parameter that I can pass to
ReportEvent.  At the moment, I'm hacking it like this:

LPSTR lpMsg = szEventMsg.c_str();
if (ReportEvent(hEventLogScr, wEventType, wCategory, dwEventID, NULL, 1, 0,
(LPCTSTR*)&lpMsg, NULL))

but I keep getting extra data being written at the end string.  Now when I
look up the typedef for LPSTR at see a char *, so I don;t really understand
what's going on.  Not too major though, thought I had a serious problem with
my system when no events were registering...

Thanks again, sorry for wasting time :-)
