Hi,

I've been trying to run a shell command in the Command Window and have
the output displayed in the window. From the VS2005 help I copied this
code:

Tools.Shell /c cmd /c dir /s /b """c:\My Documents\*.doc"""

which produces the error:

"The operation could not be completed"

removing the first /c (an alias for /command or /cmd) allows the shell
to be correctly run, but without any display. The same error is
produced with the /output (alias /o or /out or /outputwindow)

Any clues out there? Could someone try this line?

Many thanks,

Daniel
