Easy question about command prompt piping..

1 New Member
So I'm trying to pipe the output of a small diagnostic program to a txt file.

I run the command "IPT.exe -v >test.txt" which runs the program in verbose and pipes the output to test.txt, however there is one snafu. The program prompts 2 questions before running. These questions do not show up on my screen, and the command appears to hang. I can enter the appropriate responses and the program progresses and outputs continuously to the .txt but I need to display these in the actual command prompt window.

Is there some way of turning the echo on? I've tried but I don't seem to know the correct syntax.

None the less, I'm absolutely full of confidence...

Yes, I am guessing that typing cmd in the run windows will bring up the command prompt, but not the vs.net command prompt. Is there a switch(s) for accessing the vs.net command prompt? Or do you get to it from the VS.net IDE? Thanks, Rog
