Can anybody tell me what is maximum size of a windows NT log message? I know that it is possible to reset the maximum log size of event log from 32 MB. I am interested about the memory a single message can hold in NT event log.
Thanks in advance

The answer is 32766 characters ~ 32 KB
See a example below: Error: Log entry string is too long. A string written to the event log cannot exceed 32766 characters.
In Windows Server 2008 the maximum size of a single Event Log entry is: 31,839 characters http://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/windows/desktop/aa363679.aspx
