Thanks folks! Your inputs are highly appreciated.

>To add to Éric suggestion, you may also take a look at WSH. Here is a small example to create a file and write a simple line in it:
>
>Dim FileSystemObject as Object, loLogFile as Object
>Set FileSystemObject = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
>Set loLogFile = FileSystemObject.CreateTextFile("C:\Test.TXT", True)
>loLogFile.WriteLine "Test"
>loLogFile.Close
>Set loLogFile = Nothing
>Set FileSystemObject = Nothing
>
>You have to check "Microsoft Script Control 1.0" in Project|References before using that example.
