Ok- I've figured out the problem.
After Mark suggested doing the call to ReadEventLog() inside of the while loop,
I had accidentally left a call to ReadEventLog() outside of the loop.
So the data coming back from that was just thrown away.
The reason I didn't see that call is because all of t

OK, in my test,

I've added the While loop Mark suggested but still see the same issue.
GetNumberOfEventLogRecords() still returns 6 events,
However the object returned from ReadEvenLog() still only contains 3 objects
The next call to ReadeventLog() returns None
flags = win32evtlog.EVENTLOG_BACKWARDS_READ|win32ev
That didn't really change anything.
GetNumberOfEventLogRecords() tells me there are 6 events,
However the object returned from ReadEvenLog() still only contains 3 objects
flags = win32evtlog.EVENTLOG_BACKWARDS_READ|win32evtlog.EVENTLOG_SEQUENTIAL_READ
events = win32evtlog.ReadEventLog(hand, flag
I'll give that a try.
I was using this for my reference

Check out the ReadEventLog code in win32evtlogutil.py - you will notice
you need a loop like:
while 1:
objects = win32evtlog.ReadEventLog(h, readFlags, 0)
if not objects:
break

Ok, I'm able to parse Event51 logs now.
However, there seems to be a problem with the object returned from
ReadEventLogs()
GetNumberOfEvents() tells me there are 6 events.
I can see all sixe events using the EventViewer in Control Panle, on Widnwos XP.
However, the iterator returned from RedEv

Thanks, but those just monitor events.
I need to pull some very specific data from an event log file, after I
know the event has already occurred.
Tim has another module called winsys, and there is an object which
handles some aspects of reading event logs.

Check wmi module:

It has some functions to access windows logs..

Does anyone know if there is a Python module which will parse Windows
Event Logs?
Using the EventViewer is tedious, and I'd rather be abel to do this
programmatically.
Thanks
