Hi Adrian/Melvin, Thanks for your prompt replies. Yeah, I'm aware of that way. But my requirement is to get the server shutdown time whenever that event occurs and insert into a table dynamically!! Is it possible? The main reason for my requirement is to find the time swing between server stop and start. Thanks in advance.
