If you want to use Windows API methods from .Net, you'll need to use PInvoke to call them. There's a site called pinvoke.net that has samples for how you call many of the APIs so if you know which API you want to call, that's usually the best place to start.

For your use case maybe you dont need API at all. You could use the FileSystemWatcher .net class to react on any changes in a log folder e.g. It reacts on modify/add/delete of files.
