Set colRetrievedEvents = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select * from Win32_NTLogEvent")

For Each objEvent in colRetrievedEvents
    objRS.AddNew
    objRS("Category") = objEvent.Category
    objRS("ComputerName") = objEvent.ComputerName
    objRS("EventCode") = objEvent.EventCode
    objRS("Message") = objEvent.Message
    objRS("RecordNumber") = objEvent.RecordNumber
    objRS("SourceName") = objEvent.SourceName
    objRS("TimeWritten") = objEvent.TimeWritten
    objRS("Type") = objEvent.Type
    objRS("User") = objEvent.User

objRS.Close
objConn.Close
