I think you'll have to use PInvoke and OpenBackupEventLog.
[DllImport("advapi32.dll", EntryPoint="OpenBackupEventLog")] public static
extern int OpenBackupEventLogA(string lpUNCServerName, string lpFileName)
I believe the log name that you would use with EventLog is "Backup of
application", or something of that nature.
I haven't tried it; so, I don't knof if it will even work. You may have to
avoid EventLog altogether.
Let us know if that works.
