This software package consists of 11 separate tools. Six of them can be downloaded as Shareware versions for testing purposes, but some options won't work in the Shareware versions. You can test every Shareware module for 4 weeks with one account. If you find at least one of the tools useful and are willing to use it after this period of time, then you need to pay a small registration fee and get the unrestricted versions of all tools. Pay once and get all modules! When you want to register, just request an offer according to your needs. The current price list is also available online.
Most of the tools offer abundant possibilities for the evaluation of one or two specific events. You have the possibility to choose if you want to create the report in text format or as data records, if you want to create summaries per user or exhaustive reports per event and so on. The evaluation programs won't work with the eventlog files currently used by Windows itself. You can only evaluate saved eventlog files. With the Freeware tool EventSave, it is no problem to easily save the logs into a file.
You can also choose whether the output should be created in OEM or in ANSI character set. As you probably know, OEM is the default character set in the command line window. The use of this option is recommended if the output of a tool will go onto the screen. ANSI is the usual character set for most GUI programs. The use of this option is recommended if you pipe the output of a program into a file, which will be processed or viewed by a GUI program later.
This software was developed with largest care. However, the author can not guarantee that it runs under each version of Windows on each computer flawlessly.

| Description |
ECA is the abbreviation for Event Copy & Append and is a version of EventSave, which does only backup events to another file without clearing the logs after that step. The program remembers the time stamp of the last event copied for each log. When the program does run again, it does only append new events to the files in the backup directory. Besides these differences, ECA works the same way as EventSave+ does.
Make sure to use ECA with a different destination path than EventSave+ or EventSave use!
There is no demo version available of ECA (except the Freeware program EventSave), it is part of the registered version of Report Event for Windows only. |

| Description |
The purpose of this program is to merge some or all events from different Windows machines into one file. While copying the
events, they will be sorted by time.
Example:
This command scans the Security logs of the month May 2001 of all machines which are located in the directory C:\Events and copies all events with logon failures into the target file 2001_05_Breakin_Security.evt in the current directory. Events which are already in the target file will be skipped with the parameter /N. There is no demo version of MER available, it is part of the registered version of Report Event for Windows only. |
