Re: [U2] Capturing output from a Command line program?
Richard, When Universe shells down via the DOS command, it (Universe) doesn't reliably handle standard output and/or error. The result is that DOS output isn't always captured when EXECUTE'd (it seems to depend on the command). A more reliable strategy is to redirect the command output into a type 1 or 19 file, then READ it in. rex Richard Blackman wrote: Hi All, I am trying to capture the output from an EXECUTE statement on a command line program but nothing is being captured, even though I know there is some output.
