Syntax for the "Start" method

[Greg Smith]

I am trying to use the "Ping" command and capture the
output. I can run it with the following:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("ping.exe","-a
123.123.123.123");

This works fine. However, when I attempt to redirect the
output to a file using:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("ping.exe", " -a
123.123.123.123 > c:\\temp\\ping.txt");

This does not work. What would the correct syntax be for
this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. Is there any other way to capture this output into
my program?

System.Diagnostics.Process p = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

p.StartInfo.FileName = "ping";

p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;

p.StartInfo.Arguments = " -a 123.123.123.123";

p.Start();

p.WaitForExit();

string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();

try

Process.Start("cmd.exe", "/c ping.exe -a 123.123.123.123 >
c:\\temp\\ping.txt");
