Answer» Hello,
I'm trying to write a program which will launch a .exe from CMD, and using the > command capture the text. The only problme I have is after AWHILE the text file will become very large. I need to figure out how to save the file after a while without stopping and start the .exe again
Thanks for any help This is not possible (PROBABLY, Im sure SOMEONE will come up with a smart way of doing it!!)
However - if you are not interested in the contents of the file, just redirect the output to the device NUL (>NUL) which just loses the output.
If you are only interested in some of the output, filter it with FindStr mycommand.exe|findstr 'parameters'> mytext.txt
'parameters' is obviously replaced by your conditions for selecting lines

May be you could create 2 files:
One for standard outpur > Other for ERROR 2>Not entirely sure this will work but try it:
Start "' "C:\path\to\file.exe" >> "%userprofile%\desktop\log.txt"
