    Question Gathering Data from DOS Program

    I am wondering if the following is possible. At work I need to access data from a Main Frame application. I access this information via a DOS Communication Program. What I would like to do is output a value to the program and then I want to cut and paste the data that is displayed on the screen. How would I go about this?

    Thanks
    Regards,

    Mark

    You could try redirecting the output of the DOS program form the DOS window to a text file. Example: DIR C:\*.* > DIRLIST.TXT
