If it's for debugging, why not redirect the output of the scripts? There are several ways of doing this like: (i) replace the script by a wrapper @echo off rem this wrapper calls the actual up_script_orig.bat call up_script_orig.bat >up_script.log 2>&1 exit /b (ii) move the script to a function and call it, redirecting o/p @echo off call :do_work >up_script.log 2>&1 exit /b :do_work @echo on @rem the original script follows.. .... .... @rem end of script @echo off exit /b Selva
