sharepoint log?

Question

Hello everyone,

I am using SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise with Windows Server 2008 Enterprise. I want to know how to find error logs when I met with something wrong?

For example, when I am using SharePoint Designer 2007 to import a list to a web page by using Data View -> Insert Dataview, there is error message like this -- "The server returned a non-specific error when trying to get data from the data source. Check the format and content of your query and try again. If the problem persists, contact the server administrator."

How to find more details logs?

thanks in advance, George
