I'm using 'concur_command' to run something in the 'Build' window.
The 'Output' window can't be used for this purpose.
Example:
_command void ddir () name_info (','VSARG2_EDITORCTL)
{
activate_build ();
_str cmdline=get_env ("COMSPEC") " /c dir" " 2>&1";
concur_command (cmdline, false, true, false, false);
}
Hope it helps,
