hi,
I have given a command in command prompt (say ant) and then it will be executing the files. My question is how to copy that which is in command prompt to a file say notepad. While I am running autobuilder\ant, it will be showing all that in command prompt and the process takes hours. I want to copy the details in a file so that I can check later point of time. Please tell me the way.

Thank you.
Kishore

OK what you need to do is select what you want you want copy and the paste it to notepad.
In the CMD box Right click the name bar at the top, go down to the EDIT menu and left click MARK.
This turns the cursor into a solid block.
Then it's just a case of highlight everything you want.
Then Right click the top bar again, go down to EDIT and select COPY.
Then it's a simple case of pasting it into Notepad.

Hope this helps
