title: Exporting SharePoint usage log files into a database using LogParser
body: <p>So basically we have lots of SharePoint usage log files generated by our SharePoint 2007 site and we would like to make sense of them. For that we're thinking of reading the log files and dumping into a database with the appropriate columns and all. Now I was going to make an SSIS package to read all the text files and extract the data when I came across LogParser. Is there a way to use LogParser to dump data into an Sql Server database or the SSIS way is better? Or is there any other better way to use the SharePoint usage logs?</p>
