  #include "xbevent.ch"

local nEvtHandle    := 0
local cError        := space(100)
local nRecords      := 0

//
// open a Eventlog-Key and directly close key again
//
if ((nEvtHandle := XbOpenEventLog(, "WinApp")) <= 0)
  XbEventGetLastError(@cError)
  ? "Error :", cError
else
  if (XbQueryLogEntryNum(nEvtHandle, @nRecords)== FALSE)
    XbEventGetLastError(@cError)
    ? "Error :", cError
  else
    ? "we have", nRecords, "entries in this logfile"
  endif
  XbCloseEventLog(nEvtHandle)
