Hey guys, and possibly girls, I am using my command prompt for a certain program I am designing, which requires writing results to a text file. I am using NSLOOKUP. Here is the line I type:

NSLOOKUP www.google.com >dir C:\Users\MyNameHere\Desktop\here.txt

It doesn't seem to work, yet I am sure it is correct.

Could anyone show me what to do?

remove the "dir " from the command. It should then look like this:
NSLOOKUP www.google.com >C:\Users\MyNameHere\Desktop\here.txt

Tested it on Windows7 tho' - so YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary) :huh:
