Hello Everyone,

Or for that matter, how can I run a given command as if I entered it
into the DOS window?

Example:
C:\Documents and Settings\tnt>ipconfig

Windows 2000 IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

        Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.115
        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

Thank you,

Todd

Just run it with "system":
  system "ipconfig"

If you want the output as a string, use backquotes:
  output = `ipconfig`

Thank you,
