Well, you can use the pipe command to send the results of a command to a
file.

Dir *.* > c:\test.txt

I hope this helps.

To make my question clearer I shall describe what I need:

I want to create a VFP application that detects each change in another
dos-box window where an old dos application is running

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance
