Greg, Try this... nslookup|run cmd.exe /k nslookup %s (btw, you can use a pipe '|' instead of a <tab> now) I doubt this works on 95/98/ME (with command.exe), but it should work on NT/2000/XP. Using cmd.exe also allows redirection of the output: nslookup|run cmd.exe /k nslookup %s >c:\dqsd.log Glenn > I tried redirecting the results to a text file, and that > didn't work either (ie. the alias: > > nslookup<tab>run nslookup %s > c:\temp\results.txt > > didn't create the file (even though that command works find > on the command line after manual substitution.) > > As for "Why not just use the dns and sams tools?"
