Several times I got Errors in windows 2000 like this. This is the Standard Style Windows 2000 Displays when a program gererates an error . This is d the Dialog box that popsup.


Program error
Someprogram.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You
will need to restart the program. An error log is being generated.


Where On earth the log file is Generated? .Can anybody tell me.
I am tired of searching for it.

The error was probably posted to the application event log.
The standard location for this file is:

C:\WINNT\system32\config\AppEvent.Evt

This easiest way to view information in this file is to use the
'Event Viewer'. It can be accessed from the Administrative
Tools section of the windows menus.
