Hi, So I finally got around to separate the event logging and error logging functionalities. (i.e. INFO goes into one file and the rest Error and Warn goes into another). I had to enumerate the Levels I wanted to log onto error log. (Though I don't think this is optimum). If anyone has any better suggestions how to log all the levels but INFO onto one file please let me know.
Anyway, I thought this would help anyone who might be looking for a ready made XML in the future. Thanks.
