Yes, scheduled saves would allow me to forward filtered events to specific
users without my intervention. I give credit to James Shanks for reminding
it's a Netview GUI only function.

Thanks.

Since you are using NT, the event database is stored
in either Access or MS-SQL.  It's pretty easy to write
a script in either Perl or TCL, or even ASP to
generate a HTML view of the events.  The default DSN
for the event database is defined as tess_ds.  You can
get to it pretty easily through and ODBC driver and
SQL SELECT statements.  I think the Netview Web
Interface uses the DSN if I am remember correctly.  If
you have microsoft frontpage, there are default
database wizards that can help you build the webpage.
Since the events are already store in a database,  do
you really need to perform scheduled saves?
