Hi all,

Extending this subject the !type command works for me but do you know how I can included a variable to the path of these files i.e. ideally i would like to do something like this:

!type path_1 text_1.txt > new_text_file.txt

!type path_2 text_2.txt >> new_text_file.txt

Obviously this does not work so what is the format of this command?

Thanks

CF

You cannot do this with the bang operator (!). You will need to use the
DOS, UNIX, or SYSTEM functions to do this. Construct the command you want
to execute as a string and call one of these functions with the string as
input.
