Tough One - Return output from Dos Process without writing to file

Hi All,

Does anyone know of an approach that could be used to return the output of a
dos command without having to create a temporary file.

I am currently using the following dos command as part of a "Shell"
command:-

ping localhost temp.txt

I can only find solutions that seem to only work in .net and I need
something for good old VBA

Thanks in advance

Andi
