James, You could try using a custom filter class that you attach to your appenders and that look s for the condition(s) you set for turning appending on/off.
Also, on a separate note, would you post your code for doing the logging programmatically? I'm trying to do the same thing for unit testing custom layouts, appenders and loggers.

The question I have is about redirecting or temporarily turning off appenders. Say I have two appenders added to the over all config. One is a simple file appender whilst the other is an Event log appender. Most of the time I just want things to go to the file appender and on some occasions I want logs to just go to the EventLog. The config is all being performed in code by creating the required appenders and then calling ActivateOptions(). How would I go about turning them on and off selectively in code? (C#). Cheers, James.
