Bill,

I just came across this, and it indeed works like a charm

? ShellExecute( hDCScreen, "open", "command.com", "/c dir c:\*.* >>test.txt", "c:\", 1 )

You have to use >> instead of just one

>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().
