Hi,

I know it might sound silly, but I couldn't find the following commands (using a batch file):

1. delete some log from existing eventlog?
2. Read some log from an eventlog.

Is there a way to count the number of current logs attached to a specific eventlog?

Is there a .net timer-object that signals a specific process after X time?

Sorry for the shower of questions

They're not available as DOS-commands, but you can use VBScript[^] from the console in the same way using CScript.exe[^].

As an alternative, you could opt to write a small console-application in C# or VB.NET.

There's a timer that raises an event after a specified period of time. It doesn't signal other processes by itself, you'd have to write that part. "How" will depend on what kind of signal the other proces is expecting.
