title: How do i read the eventlog of windows service
body: <p>I am trying to modify an already written Windows service.</p>
  
  <p>I see the source has an System.diagnostic.EventLog object which logs different action of the service.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to figure out how do i read this log. From semantics it seems that Eventlog  is logging several actions of service. </p>
  
  <p>where is this log stored, how can i see it, i need access to it as my service sometimes stop intermittently.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to google it but did not find any solid answers. Putting the questions simply what is an eventlong and how do i use it.</p>
