p. 364, answer 54: This answer should read:

Answer D is correct. If you don't specify the name of the event log
that you're writing to, .NET uses the Application event log. The code
will create a new event source named MyLog, but that's not the same as 
creating a new event log. To create a new event log, you can use the
EventLog.CreateEventSource method. Answer A is incorrect because the code
runs fine. ANswer B is incorrect because WriteEntry does not create a
new event log. Answer C is incorrect because WriteEntry does not use a 
MessageBox.
