If you want to Redirect the IO from a batch file, there must first of
all be an output to redirect.
when you used the "@echo off", you made sure nothing was to be printed to the
screen. therefore, nothing was redirected. try the following batch file:
--- start of batch
DIR
--- end of batch

now, when you use it this way: FOO > OUT.DAT
the output will be redirected to a file, instead of appearing on your screen.

			Hope it helps, Eran
