FinanceFerret/tables/event

About

 * Version: Copied, with only slight changes, from VbzCart tables. This version is suitable for re-use in other projects, but perhaps should be renamed EventLog or Events because the MySQL syntax highlighter thinks "log" is a keyword.
 * 2009-08-30: suggest LogEvent ("Log" as prefix so all log tables are together, type of log as singular)
 * Fields:
 * isError: FALSE = this is just a message or normal event; TRUE = there is a problem to fix (error)
 * Notes
 * Have to use "Ev" prefix for field names that would otherwise be keywords: When, Where
 * "Code" doesn't seem to be getting any use, but leaving it in for now
 * History:
 * 2010-03-31 Making changes based on changes to VbzCart/tables/event log, since those seem to be working well:
 * renaming table: "Event Log" -> "event"
 * EvWhen -> WhenStarted, WhenFinished
 * AppUser -> WhoAdmin, SysUser -> WhoSystem, Machine -> WhoNetwork
