How to read Windows 2000 server event logs

hi,

I have very huge data of windows 2000 server event logs backed as .evt files. I want to read these logs and dump those into sql server and query it based on user and some other criteria's

Can anybody help me out to do this application.

Here is what M$ says about this:

Here is a link to a post I have with an attachment code that will backup logs
to a file so you can open them using File I/O. Easier.

HTH
