	Sorry, realised I could have been a little more explicit in the
advice. ;-)

	 

	Call system 'CMD /c sed -f c:\script.txt c:\PP.txt > c:\PPP.txt'

	 

	 

	Type cmd /? Is you want to see more options.

	 

	Regards,

	 

	Pete

	Hi All,

	 

	I've got Monday morning blues; I'm running a call system command
to execute a sed script against a file:

	 

	CALL SYSTEM 'sed -f c:\script.txt c:\PP.txt > c:\PPP.txt';

	 

	The above works fine in a seperate command window. 

	 

	The problem i am getting is that it will not redirect the
output. Now i've tried everything i can possibly think of. (Checked
redirects work in call system): CALL SYSTEM 'dir c:\ > fred';

	 

	I've attached a screenshot of the cmd window that pops up, can
clearly see the sed script running, but not producing the output file.

	 

	Is it me or does this not work? What am i missing??

	 

	 

	 

	Cheers, 
	Gareth Edwards
