Two solutions occur to me. 4dos, (an improved shell) will run under dos 4.0 I believe, and it allows separate re-direction of stdout, plus many other goodies. I recommend it. A dos solution might be to write a small c program that re-opens standard error to a file and then spawns your process. I can't say for your particular case, but I have in the past used this method with success. Rick
