David,
if I understand you correctly you currently see this in your log file:
di "Sometext"
.Sometext
but you want to see
Sometext
The latter is achieved if you put the command into a program. Your
dofile could look like this
quiet {
program myprog
di "Sometext"
end
}
myprog
program drop myprog
The out put will be:
. do "C:\DOKUME~1\buechte\LOKALE~1\Temp\STD01000000.tmp"
. quiet {
.
. myprog
Sometext
.
. program drop myprog
Hope this helps,
kind regards,
sebastian
