About this Article:
The BINDEVENT() function is very handy is when you can't change the source code. If you don't have the source code or it comes from a third party, binding may be the only way to hook your own code in. This function is also useful at times when you may have access to the source code, but adding the necessary calls would be onerous or would make your code unwieldy. In particular, this applies to progress reporting and logging application activity. This article shows you how to easily set up logging code without changing the application code.
