 ByVal formatter _
 As System.Web.Management.WebEventFormatter)
     MyBase.FormatCustomEventDetails(formatter)

     ' Add custom data.
     formatter.AppendLine("")
     formatter.AppendLine( _
     "Custom Process Information:")
     formatter.IndentationLevel += 1

     ' Display the process information.
     formatter.AppendLine(GetAccountName())
     formatter.AppendLine(GetProcessId())

Remarks

The FormatToString method provides a uniform format for event information, which is useful if the event data must be logged and later presented to the user. The method is called internally when the provider invokes one of the ToString methods.
