You create a separate file that you redirect output to from each task and then 
email that file instead.

Subject: [NTSysADM] quick batch question

I have a scheduled task to run a batch script to copy files.  In task scheduler 
I run the command c:\batch.bat > d:\results.txt.

Example of c:\batch.bat
copy c:\file1 d:
copy c:\file2 d:
blat.exe d:\results.txt (smtp settings omitted)

This fails to email because I get an error about opening the d:\results.txt 
file since it is use by task scheduler.

So my question is, what is the best way to email myself the logs for this batch 
file?  I can't think of any other way to do this other than to have a separate 
task to email reults.txt, which I want to stay away from.

TIA

Jimmy
