I'll use Ping.Exe as my example as I'm fairly certain it produces only output.
C:\>Ping > Somefile.Txt
The greater-than sign will create an ASCII text file containing the output. Be careful tho, if Somefile.Txt already exists, it will be overwritten.
C:\>Ping >> Somefile.Txt
Does the same thing, but will append the output to Somefile.Txt.
Hope this helps.
