Thank you.

Tried that, but

echo XYZ >> outfile.txt

will always append a \r\n to the outfile, so it's very difficult to concatenate strings without even more "dance". I settled for the scripting host method because JavaScript is well known to me and it's easy to do string operations and such. You can even double click the file and it gets executed. Also, Windows batch file syntax sucks.

Thanks,
