SQL Server Script to Import ErrorLog

Not very good with script.  
Can somebody modify the following script, so it can be executed in SQL Server 2008 and R2 without returning error. The was tested on a 2000 Instance of SQL but never tested on 2K5 or 2K8.





CREATE PROC sp_import_errorlog
(
      @log_name sysname,
      @log_number int = 0,
      @overwrite bit = 0
)
AS
/*************************************************************************************************
Purpose:      To import the SQL Server error log into a table, so that it can be queried

      
Tested on:       SQL Server 2000

Limitation:       With error messages spanning more than one line only the first line is included in the table

Example 1:       To import the current error log to table myerrorlog
            EXEC sp_import_errorlog 'myerrorlog'

Example 2:       To import the current error log to table myerrorlog, and overwrite the table
            'myerrorlog' if it already exists
            EXEC sp_import_errorlog 'myerrorlog', @overwrite = 1

Example 3:       To import the previous error log to table myerrorlog
            EXEC sp_import_errorlog 'myerrorlog', 1

Example 4:       To import the second previous error log to table myerrorlog
            EXEC sp_import_errorlog 'myerrorlog', 2
