Champions League is for the top teams of a domestic league to participate in. Depending on the country's coefficent the league might get a maximum of up to 4 slots. Currently the countries with 4 slots are Spain, England and Italy. Next are France, Germany and Portugal with three slots, and so on.
UEFA cup is for the teams finishing directly outside the CL spots in the league and also the winners of the domestic cup. This comes from the old Cup Winners' Cup, with was absorbed into the UEFA Cup in 1999. If there is an additional League Cup (like in England) then the winners of that will go into the UEFA Cup too.
Again, coefficents determines the number of UEFA Cup slots each country gets. Most of the top leagues have three, but Holland and Greece each have four, which they allocate to the cup holders and the teams finishing below the CL spots, i.e. 3rd, 4th and 5th. (They both have two CL spots).
Example:
England - Top 4 qualifies for CL. 5th plus FA Cup winner plus League Cup winner qualifies for UEFA Cup. If either cup winner qualifies for the CL then 6th in the league gets the UEFA slot. If both cup winners make the CL then 7th place gets the UEFA Cup spot as well.
Spain - Top 4 qualifies for CL. 5th and 6th plus cup winner makes the UEFA cup. Same rule applies if cup winners makes the CL.

Ouma I think you're mixing up UEFA Cup with the UEFA organisation itself. UEFA Cup is a tournament for second best clubs (from last season league tables) or the winner of league cups the likes of FA cup, Coppa Italia or etc. While the best clubs compete in Champions League Cup.
If it's European countries against each other that's Euro Cup, like the up-coming Euro 2008. Cheers ,V,,
