Accessing useful group role and item information from MOSS audit logs using RS

  • Has anyone come across a way to do this ?

    The problem is that when the audit log is exported to Excel the items

    that are audited appear with their item id rather than with a meaningful name, I don't have sufficient access myself to determine the following but apparently both the item and the role group information are shown as ids.

    Is their a way of using RS to gouge this information out or is it strictly

    a coding solution ?

    thanks

  • Just got back to looking into this issue.

    More detail:

    The report in question is accessed via Site Actions|Site Settings|

    under Site Collection Administration|Audit log reports|Security And Site Settings Reports|Security settings with a URL that looks like this:

    SubmitFormToRunReport(' ','Security_settings.xml','');

    When run the Excel spreadsheet has a column called 'Event Data' withni the worksheet 'Report Data 1' . This column will contain somethnig like this:

    What is required is to turn this garbage into something useful, i.e. return the name of the group and the user who has been added/deleted to/from the group.

    If I find an answer I'll post it here.
