Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	karabin, I think you are looking for this... code: ReDirectOutput("\\papasmurf\temp$\@WKSTA.log") SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C c:\cmdinfo\cmdinfo.exe > Nul" !! Be cautious with the NUL as a common mistake is to do NULL and it creates a file where the script was executed. Or to a file.. code: SHELL "%COMSPEC% /C c:\cmdinfo\cmdinfo.exe > \\papasmurf\temp$\@WKSTA.log" Things to remember about with the Redirects ">".. A single ">" always starts or erases a file. A double ">>" appends to the end of a file. HTH, - Kent [ 30 April 2002, 04:28: Message edited by: kdyer ] _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's

(almost) everything you wanted to know about RUN and SHELL File Input/Output Primer (mis)use of quotes p.s. where $ is used within quotes, it should be $$.

karabin karabin Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-04-25 Posts: 5 Loc: Doylestown, PA	Everyone thanks for all the help! LLigetfa, when you say using $ within quotes are you refering to when i use "\\papasmurf\...\temp$" should be "\\papasmurf\..\temp$$" _________________________ Jason Karabin jason@karbin.org If it ain't broke, always try to fix it
