So I think I've got the batch file just about working, but I need to include the machine's name in the .evt filename.

How do I get the machine's name?


Thanks!

I figured that it was an easy answer, but I can't believe how long it took me to find it using google.

For anyone else who may not know: %COMPUTERNAME%

Please post as much information about your computer, operating system, and problem as possible, what happened prior to problems, etc. Too much info is OK, too little is pointless! Don't just say "My computer doesn't work. What's wrong?"

I, on the other hand, will forget in five minutes as I don't use that variable. ::)
