Hello,

Thanks & Regards.

Hi Moshi,

you seem to join the unfortunate tendency to post the very same question multiple times: If people can't assist you it won't help repeating and doubling your question - it would be better to continue your original thread, see here

Hi

Yes I have posted the question 2nd time beacuase I have not got reply of my query in my original thread. I was just posting it as the main topic so that most of the people can see and assist.

Moshi,

You can use pipes to do this, though when I tried this I couldn't get a reliable solution. I abandoned pipes and simply coerced the output into a file that I then read in. This is a very crude solution and I suspect isn't very future proof but it works in W7! Code below might help:

  sprintf (Cmd, "\"%s\" > \"%s\"", BatchFilePath, OutputFile);

  Ret = system(Cmd);

  if ( Ret < 0)  

  {                      

    //file is not there   

    sprintf( Msg, "Can't run %s, error: %i", Cmd, Ret);

   return Msg;

  }
