Hi Michael,

Would Run/RunWait with the Hide option work for what you are trying to do? If not could you be a bit more specific pls?

hi corrupt
i'm trying to send commands like /dir to the cmd.exe from a script
and iwas wondering if i could send the command such as /dir to the
cmd.exe with the command prompt window opening
but i think i found a way to do it
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/docu ... ction.mspx
do you know if cmd is a file extensions like test.cmd ?
i think i can send the comamnds to a text file or a cmd file then run them
from a gui script

thank you for the help
Michael

You could use something similar to this to send the output of a directory listing to a file without displaying a console window:

If you wanted to return the output to a variable directly instead then CMDret could be another option.

yes i have CMDret very nice work i'm going to use it for just that output to a variable
thats really good work
thanks for the dll
michael
