Several others have answered 1 & 3, so I'll take a stab at #2:

Shell "Net Send <Machine Name or IP Address> Trouble on river city Server!"

Anything you can do like that from the command line can be done with the
Shell function.

Subject: [pro_vb] Logging COM+ errors to NT Event Viewer


Actually, I have 3 questions, all related to error handling. If you can 
answer any one of them, I'd be delighted.

TIA,
Bill

1. I'm learning about COM+. I want our COM+ business-tier objects (written 
in VB 6) to send any error messages to the local NT event log. How do I do 
this?

2. I would also like the COM+ object to issue a
 
"net send \bill trouble on river city Server!"

back to the client workstation (presentation tier) that invoked the 
business tier object.

3. How can I tell from inside VB 6 which OS is running? (i.e. Win 98, Win 
NT, Win 2000)
