Is there an easy way to write to and read from the windows event log in VBA?
Yes, using the standard API calls. See HOWTO: Write to the Windows NT Event Log from Visual Basic This is fairly old but should get you started.
Note, however, that this code uses a default source. (Run the event log to see what I mean by source.) I haven't run tihs code in Access so I don't know what the default source is for Access. In VB6 thuogh it was something generic with VB 6 runtime or some such. If you visit the thread ReportEvent and MessageDLL problem Options it states you need to run an install program with admin privileges to add your app name and path to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application\ So this could get even more complex when it comes to getting a distinguishable source in the event log.

I’m writing an app that has users belonging to specific teams. I need somewhere to store, access and modify data (such as username, password, teamID, and a few other details) from within Godot, preferably using GDScript
I’ve tried using things like Lootlocker but it wasn’t right for my project. I’ve also tried setting up a SQL database using freesqldatabase.com however I can’t work out how to run SQL queries from within Godot. If it helps, I am able to access my database using the phpMyAdmin website.
Please note this can’t be a local database as I need to be able to access the data from any device where the app is installed.
I really appreciate any information you think might be helpful, thanks.

I am making an application and would like for this application to be able to retrieve data from Mozilla Thunderbird. However, I have only been able to find an API for Thunderbird extensions. Is there an API that will allow native applications, outside of Thunderbird to interact with Thunderbird's databases?
No. But you could create a Thunderbird extension and communicate with it via TCP sockets (see nsIServerSocket). That extension would do the "dirty work" for you. If you want to get the data while Thunderbird isn't running then the only solution will be redoing the database reading logic in your application (Thunderbird is open-source of course but reusing its code will be hard). Btw, the .msf files use the infamous Mork file format.

Does anybody know if autotrader.com offers an API or something that would help with mass postings of vehicles?
Or does anybody have any idea of what to use to create something like this? I was thinking of maybe a mouse location and click over a browser window type of thing.
AutoTrader provides a bulk upload feature through a file feed process. The file runs through a set of processes to associate it with the proper listing tier (Premium, Feature or Standard) and in addition normalizes the information across vehicle make and models. This process runs several times daily and is being migrated to a near real-time solution for quicker add or updates.
I can find no documentation on it but I've come across this link which seems to provide a json response.

I'm looking to connect to an existing FTP server, upload a file, wait while the server generates a report on it, and download that report back to the local machine in a VB.NET 2.0 WinForms project.
Is there an existing FTP library that would be helpful to me for this? My task seems simple enough that I'd rather not get into the world of active vs. passive, sockets, etc.
Look into System.Net.FtpWebRequest/FtpWebResonse
System.Net.FtpWebRequest and System.Net.WebClient can both do this.
WebClient is simpler but supports less features. I haven't run into many situations that FtpWebRequest can't handle.
You need to use FtpWebRequest.
Have you tried the FtpWebRequest class

is there any tool that can produce me simple application something like access
but without the need for access or open office to be installed
some thing that will save the data in real stand alone executable file with embedded simple db for non programmers.
I believe Filemaker does what you want. It's not free, however you could always download the trial and see if it fits.
If you are familiar with Access, you should look into compiling it into a standalone app using the Access runtime. Here's a thread on it.
Bear in mind that non-programmers will be quite limited in what they'll be able to accomplish, so calling this "rapid application development" is probably way overstating things.
