I am experiencing a problem with my event veiwer. I can
open it up and go to system and see the log entries just
fine. I then click on application, and see nothing.
However, at the top of the window, it tells me that I have
1311 entries into the application log. What gives? I do
not have a filter on at all. Can someone point me in the
right direction?
 
anonymous,

I posted a message to the group yesterday requesting a reply from Microsoft
regarding this issue :

There have been a number of posts from people with this problem. Part of my
posting gives corrective measures (as do numerous replies to other posts).
The basic workaround (I hesitate to consider anything a *fix* at this point)
is to delete and recreate the event log files. I have had some success
(temporary) with clearing the logs and exiting the application. Others have
had to resort to deleting the logs and recreating them in accordance with MS
KB Article 172156.

Hope this helps,

Charlie
