>Is it possible to use ShellExecute() to execute a DOS program AND redirect the DOS program's output to a file. I have not been able to get this to work with ShellExecute() by placing the redirection operator and file name in the Parameters variable. However, I have been able to get this to work with WinExec(), but not ShellExecute().

Bill,
In my opinion, ShellExecute() is intended for opening or printing files, but it can also start an executable. This latter capability I look on as an extended feature. I don't think that you'll be able to do any re-direction of DOS from it, but I very well could be wrong.
