Hi WenJun,

Thanks for your note, but I what I was meaning to ask was: "Are there
any other IIS 6.0 custom logging examples besides the one that I
found?"

I am aware that custom logging is not an ISAPI filter.

I am writing an ISAPI filter, and I want to write to the IIS 6.0 log
in W3C Extended Log Format.

Also, I was hoping to discover if there are any restrictions or
contraints when it comes to custom logging in IIS 6.0.

Many Thanks!
-Rob.
