How can we display the out put in a batch file to screen as well as to a file. I tried the following command but didn't work.
temp.bat >out 2>&1
But this is creating the out file but is not displaying on the screen simultaniously

This may not be the best method, but it works. Edit your batch file to direct its output to a file then as the last line of the batch file have it type out the text file. here's an example.
@echo off cls ping -a 4.2.2.2 > ping-dns.txt type ping-dns.txt
