    The System.Diagnostics.EventLog class might be useful. Start reading here...

    I think the date/time stamp is automatically generated. If you need to log an event with a different time stamp, just put it in the message string.

    Ya i finished up using  EventLog class of FrameWork . I am able write messages into EventLog but my actual question is would it be able to write date and time along with other parameters such as source , event id and message. Because i see WriteEntry of EventLog is being overloaded with different parameters but i didnt see any overloaded version of WriteEntry which takes date and time as parameter.

    Thank you very much for looking into the case.

    Here is a code sample:

    using System.Diagnostics;

    EventLog el = new EventLog();
    el.Source = "AdoDisconnectedApp";

    el.WriteEntry("Hello", EventLogEntryType.Error);

    Check out the Microsoft Wiki on it.
